Editorial policy

SleuthIt articles are produced by the SleuthIt Editorial Team using an AI-assisted research and writing pipeline, held to rules stricter than most human editorial workflows. Here is exactly how it works.

How articles are made

Every article starts from research into what people actually ask — real search data and questions from allergy communities. A content brief is built from an analysis of the best existing sources on the topic, and every statistic in that brief must carry the URL of the source it came from. The draft is written from that brief, and it is forbidden from inventing citations: a claim with no source is flagged and removed rather than dressed up.

How articles are reviewed

Before publishing, each article passes an automated review that fact-checks its most consequential claims against live sources and scores it on factual grounding, safety, citations, and clarity. Health guidance must match the consensus of organizations like FARE, ACAAI, AAAAI, and the NIH. Articles that fail are revised and re-reviewed; articles that still fail are never published.

What our content is not

SleuthIt content is educational. It is not medical advice, it never replaces an allergist, and anything involving severe reactions always defers to your emergency action plan and emergency services.
