About Natural Health Record

New health research is published every day. Most of it is written for scientists and much of what reaches the public comes through headlines that oversimplify, exaggerate or get it wrong.

Natural Health Record exists to close that gap. Each week, we pick the new studies that matter most for you and your family on natural health, nutrition, exercise and medications and explain them in plain words.

What makes us different

• We read the whole study, not just the headline. We look at who and what was studied, what dose or treatment was used, how long the study lasted and who paid for it.
• We rate every topic for Risk vs. Reward. You’ll see at a glance how risky something is to try and how strong the evidence is that it works.
• We tell you when the evidence is weak. “We don’t know yet” is an honest answer and we’ll say it when it’s true.
• We show our sources. Every summary links to the original research, so you and your doctor can read it too.

Who we are
Natural Health Record was founded by a researcher with three decades of experience in clinical studies and the dietary supplement industry. That experience means we know how research is designed and where it can mislead, as well as where natural approaches have real evidence behind them.

Our promise
We’re independent and reader-supported. We’ll always be clear about why we say what we say.
