Editorial standards

How we report on longevity and wellness, what you can hold us to, and how to flag an error.

Not medical advice

This is journalism, not medical advice. Nothing on this site is a diagnosis, a prescription or a substitute for a qualified clinician. Health is individual, and the science changes. Talk to your doctor before changing any treatment, supplement or regimen based on something you read here.

Sourcing

Every story is built on the primary record: peer-reviewed studies, clinical trial registries and results, regulatory decisions, company statements and on-the-record interviews with named experts. We aim for at least two independent sources or one primary document behind every material claim, and figures link to where they came from. When a finding is early, preliminary, from an animal study, or not yet peer-reviewed, we say so plainly.

Proof versus promise

Longevity attracts strong claims. We are explicit about what is established medicine, what is promising early research, and what is unproven or unregulated. We do not present supplements, tests or therapies as proven beyond the evidence, and we name conflicts where companies fund the research.

News, analysis and opinion

We keep the three separate. News tells you what happened. Analysis explains what it means and is labelled as analysis. Opinion is clearly marked and reflects the writer's view, not a recommendation.

Corrections

We fix mistakes in the open. Material corrections are noted on the article with an updated date. If you spot an error, email editor@internationalmedicalnetworkarabia.com with the headline and the detail in question and we will review it quickly.

Conflicts of interest

Writers disclose any holding, relationship or interest relevant to a story. We do not take payment for coverage, and sponsored content, if it ever runs, is labelled as such and kept separate from the newsroom.

Use of AI imagery

The cover images on this site are simple, AI-generated illustrations created in-house. They are conceptual artwork in a consistent house style, not photographs of real events, places or people, and each carries a credit noting it was AI-generated. We do not generate images of identifiable real people, and we do not present AI artwork as documentary photography.

Independence

International Medical Network Arabia is independent. Our test for every story is simple: does it help a reader, a clinician or a founder understand healthspan more clearly and honestly?
