📘 Our story — why weeklyhealth.org?

Weekly Health was born from a simple observation: health information is overwhelming, often contradictory, and rarely actionable. In 2022, our founder — a health science educator — realized that busy people need trustworthy, distilled, and hopeful guidance, not clickbait headlines. We launched weeklyhealth.org to become a calm, green corner of the internet where evidence meets empathy.

What started as a small newsletter for 50 friends and family has grown into a global community of over 200,000 weekly readers. We remain independent, ad‑light, and fiercely committed to no conflicts of interest. Every article is reviewed for accuracy and practical relevance. No sponsored wellness products. No miracle cures. Just honest, human health science.

🧭 Our compass — mission & vision

🌱 core values

👥 Meet the team — humans behind the green

We are a small, distributed team of health writers, editors, and researchers. No corporate shareholders — just curiosity and care.

We also work with freelance fact‑checkers and guest contributors — always transparent.

📬 How we keep it trustworthy

Every article on weeklyhealth.org goes through a three‑step integrity process:

✅ Source: primary studies, government agencies, or systematic reviews.
✅ Review: at least one editor with clinical or academic background.
✅ Update: content older than 2 years is rechecked or retired.

We cite reputable databases like PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and WHO. Our “Hospital near me” search is a direct utility — no tracking, no commissions.

💬 Why “weekly”?

Because sustainable health isn’t built in a day — it’s built in consistent, small steps. Every week we deliver one core idea, one habit, and one deeper read. No panic, no perfection. Just progress.
