Source hierarchy
We prioritize government health agencies, peer-reviewed literature, consensus guidance, trial registries, and recognized mitochondrial medicine centers.
Trust and accountability
Medical editorial standards
How MDA researches, reviews, dates, corrects, and improves educational health content.
Named review
A clinician is named only after reviewing the content and approving public attribution. Unreviewed pages are labeled pending clinical review.
Review dates
Medical pages show the most recent evidence review. High-change pages such as clinical trials are checked more frequently.
Corrections
Material errors are corrected promptly, documented internally, and re-reviewed when they affect medical meaning.
Conflicts
Authors and reviewers should disclose relevant financial, research, or organizational relationships.
Patient boundaries
Content is educational, avoids individualized recommendations, and clearly routes emergencies and clinical decisions to qualified care.

Send the page URL, the statement in question, and a reliable supporting source through Contact. MDA reviews medical corrections separately from general feedback.
