Content standard
Articles and tools should state assumptions, avoid unsupported clinical claims, preserve published and updated dates, and identify source material.
How we check evidence
We prefer primary sources and guidance from government and professional bodies over commentary. When Fit after 50 relies on a health claim, a source check compares the narrow wording of the claim with named sources and records the claim, the sources, the limits, and the date. We link the source itself so you can read it. Marketing pages, testimonials, and product claims are not evidence.
This is an editorial source check. It is not a clinical peer review, and it is not a systematic review of the literature. Today, 83 narrow claims have been checked this way.
Each claim also has a strength rating in our review records. A rating applies to one narrow claim, never to a whole topic or page, and it comes from our review records, not from an AI model's confidence. Guides, tools and Minute Tips show the sources and the limits of each claim. They do not show strength ratings until a person confirms them. Our evidence and citation policy describes how sources are cited.
Who is responsible
A person at Fit after 50 is responsible for every published health claim. No physician or other licensed clinician currently reviews Fit after 50 content. Medical review must not be claimed unless a qualified reviewer is actually involved and documented. If that changes, the reviewer's real name and credential will appear on the pages they reviewed, and only on those pages. We will not display a reviewer, credential, or approval that does not exist.
How AI is used
- AI tools may help us draft, organize research, write code, and create images. Some images on Fit after 50 are AI-generated.
- The checks are prepared with AI assistance, and a person at Fit after 50 is responsible for adopting them. AI can help prepare source checks and suggested ratings. It does not decide what is published. Ratings are stored in a review record and are never generated when you visit a page.
- The action suggested by “What should I do today?” is chosen by a fixed set of rules that Fit after 50 wrote, using the goals and preferences you save. It is not chosen by a language model, and each suggestion comes with a short reason.
- The records behind each page (sources, claims, dates and history) are kept, so a check can be traced even though pages show only the sources and limits.
Safety
Safety guidance appears where you need it. A tool that needs safe conditions asks you to confirm them first and says who should not use it. A guide says when to stop and when to ask a clinician first. Nothing here diagnoses, treats, or replaces advice from your own clinician. If you have a new or concerning symptom, stop and seek medical care. See the medical and fitness disclaimer.
Corrections
If you think something is wrong, tell us through the contact page. We review the concern against the source, correct the page, and update its history. Our corrections policy describes the process.
Advertising and affiliate content
Fit after 50 sells its own products and may earn commissions from some links. Evidence is checked for claims, not for products, and a commission does not change what we say. A page that promotes a product says so. See the affiliate disclosure and the advertising disclosure. Trust and Editorial Standards describes the rest of how the site works.
