Editorial Policy
Effective date: October 21, 2026
Broad View Digest exists to help readers live well, feel good, and make confident choices about their health, beauty, and everyday routines. Trust is the foundation of that mission. This Editorial Policy explains how we choose what to cover, how we research and write it, how we keep it accurate, and how we stay independent.
Our Mission
We publish practical, approachable content on wellness, health, beauty, and modern living. Our goal is to cut through hype and trends to deliver information that is clear, balanced, and genuinely useful. We write for real people with busy lives, not for algorithms or advertisers.
Editorial Independence
Our editorial team decides what we cover and what we say about it. Advertisers, affiliate partners, and brands have no control over our coverage, opinions, or ratings, and they never review articles before publication. Commercial relationships are handled separately from editorial decisions.
We do not accept payment in exchange for positive coverage. A brand cannot buy its way into a “best of” list or out of a critical review.
Research & Sourcing
Health and beauty information should rest on solid evidence. When we write about these topics, we:
- Prioritize peer-reviewed research, systematic reviews, and guidance from recognized health organizations and professional bodies
- Consult qualified experts, such as physicians, dermatologists, registered dietitians, and certified trainers, where a topic calls for professional insight
- Link to or cite primary sources so readers can check our work
- Distinguish clearly between established evidence, emerging research, expert opinion, and personal experience
- Avoid relying on a single study, press release, or brand claim as the basis for a conclusion
We are cautious about trends, viral remedies, and bold product claims. When evidence is limited or mixed, we say so.
Accuracy & Fact-Checking
Every article is reviewed by an editor before publication for accuracy, clarity, and fairness. Facts, statistics, and health claims are checked against reliable sources. We aim for language that is precise and avoids exaggeration, fear, or false promises.
Wellness science evolves, so we periodically review and update existing content. Updated articles show a revised date so readers know the information is current.
Corrections
We work hard to get things right, but mistakes can happen. When we find an error, or a reader points one out, we review it promptly. Significant corrections are made openly and noted within the article. Minor fixes such as typos or broken links may be corrected without a note.
If you spot something that looks inaccurate or outdated, please let us know through our Contact page.
Product Reviews & Recommendations
When we recommend products, from skincare and supplements to fitness gear and home goods, our picks are based on research, ingredient and specification analysis, expert input, reader feedback, and, where possible, hands-on testing. We explain why we recommend a product and note its drawbacks, who it may not suit, and any safety considerations.
Brands sometimes send us free samples to evaluate. Receiving a product does not guarantee coverage or a positive review, and we disclose when an item was provided at no cost.
Affiliate Links & Sponsored Content
Broad View Digest earns revenue through advertising and affiliate links. If you buy a product through one of our links, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Affiliate relationships never influence which products we feature or how we rate them.
Occasionally we may publish sponsored content paid for by a brand. Sponsored content is always clearly labeled as “Sponsored” or “Paid Partnership” so readers can tell it apart from our independent editorial work.
Health Content Standards
Our health and wellness content is for general information and education. It is not medical advice and is never a substitute for consultation with a qualified healthcare provider. We encourage readers to talk to a professional before making changes to their diet, exercise, skincare, supplement, or medication routines.
We do not promote unproven cures, diagnose conditions, or encourage readers to stop or replace prescribed treatments. Content on sensitive topics, including mental health, weight, and body image, is written with care, compassion, and respect for diverse bodies and experiences.
Inclusivity & Respect
Wellness and beauty look different for everyone. We aim to represent a range of ages, skin types, body types, abilities, and backgrounds in our content and imagery. We avoid language that shames, stereotypes, or promotes unrealistic standards.
Use of AI & Technology
We may use digital tools, including AI-assisted tools, to support research, drafting, or editing. Any content shaped by these tools is reviewed, fact-checked, and approved by a human editor before publication, and remains subject to the same standards described in this policy.
Conflicts of Interest
Our writers and editors are expected to avoid conflicts of interest and to disclose any personal or financial relationship with a brand, product, or organization they cover. Contributors may not accept payment or gifts in exchange for favorable coverage.
Reader Feedback
Our readers help us improve. We welcome questions, suggestions, and constructive criticism, and we take every report of inaccuracy seriously. Reach us anytime at editorial@broadviewdigest.com or through our Contact page.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Editorial Policy as our standards and practices evolve. Changes will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
