Our editorial approach

What this content is for

Our guides explain everyday food logging, activity, sleep and self-reflection. They provide general education, not diagnosis, treatment or a personalised care plan.

English adaptations and AI assistance

The English collection adapts our Persian content for English-speaking readers. AI assists with drafting, translation and editing. Wording, examples and claims may differ where a literal translation would be unclear or misleading.

Automated checks cover route coverage, language leakage, internal links and reference calculations. These checks and AI-assisted editing do not amount to an independent human fact-check or clinical review.

Sources and uncertainty

• Link to primary research or established public-health guidance where relevant.
• Distinguish an association from a demonstrated cause, and a general estimate from an individual measurement.
• Explain the preparation, source and calculation behind food estimates.
• Avoid promises of a cure, a guaranteed outcome or a universal diet.

Authors and clinical review

The Avocado editorial team byline identifies the publisher responsible for the page. It does not imply medical qualifications or expert approval.

We only describe a page as clinically reviewed when a real reviewer, relevant qualifications and review date are identified on that page. Otherwise, do not assume clinical review has taken place.

Images and product information

Conceptual editorial images may be AI-generated and are labelled accordingly. They illustrate a topic and are not evidence of a result or an exact product screenshot.

Avocado publishes this site and develops the products discussed here. Feature and comparison pages therefore have a commercial connection; they are not independent product reviews. Access, limits and payment details should be checked in the relevant app.

Corrections and dates

Report a potentially incorrect claim, calculation, source or translation using the contact below. Include the page and the specific issue. Content may be corrected or withdrawn when necessary.

An updated date should reflect a substantive change. It does not mean a clinician has reviewed the content or every linked source was newly published.

Bilingual publishing

Each published English page has its own URL and a link to its Persian counterpart. New or substantially revised content should be prepared in both languages before release. Unfinished translations remain drafts rather than being published simply to fill a URL.
