Editorial Policy

Last Updated: February 24, 2026

At NeuropathyResource.com, we take the accuracy and integrity of our content seriously. This page explains how we research, create, and maintain the articles and resources on this site.

Our Content Standards

Every article published on Neuropathy Resource follows these principles:

  • Evidence-based. We reference peer-reviewed studies, clinical guidelines from organizations like the American Academy of Neurology, and data from institutions such as the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS). Where evidence is limited or conflicting, we say so clearly.
  • Transparent sourcing. When we cite a study or statistic, we aim to link directly to the source so you can verify the information yourself.
  • Patient-centered. Our content is written from the perspective of someone living with neuropathy. We translate medical research into language that's practical and actionable — not dumbed down, but made accessible.
  • Honest about limitations. If a treatment has weak evidence, significant side effects, or mixed results, we report that. We don't cherry-pick studies to support a narrative.

How We Research Articles

Our research process for each article includes:

  1. Topic identification based on questions frequently asked by neuropathy patients and gaps in available online information
  2. Literature review of relevant medical studies, systematic reviews, and clinical guidelines
  3. Competitive analysis to understand what information is already available and where we can add genuine value
  4. Writing and fact-checking to ensure claims are supported by the cited evidence
  5. Regular review and updates as new research becomes available

Product Reviews

When we review supplements, topical treatments, devices, or other products:

  • We examine the active ingredients and look for published research supporting their use
  • We consider the product's formulation, dosage, and value compared to alternatives
  • We disclose any affiliate relationship (see our Affiliate Disclosure)
  • We include both pros and cons — no product is perfect, and we won't pretend otherwise
  • We never claim a product can cure neuropathy or replace medical treatment

Medical Accuracy Review

Although this site is operated by a patient advocate rather than a medical professional, we take accuracy seriously. Every article goes through a verification process that includes:

  • Cross-referencing claims against current clinical guidelines from the American Academy of Neurology (AAN), the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), and other recognized medical institutions
  • Verifying statistics and study findings against their original published sources
  • Ensuring treatment discussions reflect the current evidence base, including limitations and conflicting findings
  • Reviewing dosage information, drug interactions, and safety warnings against established medical references

When we encounter topics where the evidence is uncertain or where our ability to verify exceeds our expertise, we say so directly and encourage readers to discuss the matter with their healthcare provider.

Use of AI Tools

In the interest of transparency, we want you to know that we use artificial intelligence tools to assist with research and content drafting. Specifically:

  • AI tools help us search and summarize medical literature, identify relevant studies, and draft initial content
  • All AI-assisted content is reviewed and edited by our editorial team for accuracy, tone, and alignment with our standards
  • AI does not replace human judgment — every article reflects our editorial perspective and is verified against primary sources before publication
  • We do not publish AI-generated content without human review and oversight

We believe AI tools, when used responsibly, allow us to cover more topics more thoroughly than we could alone — ultimately serving you better. But the editorial voice, the decisions about what to include, and the commitment to honesty are always human.

Corrections and Updates

Medical knowledge evolves, and we're committed to keeping our content current. When we update an article with significant new information or correct an error, we note the update within the article. If you spot something that appears inaccurate or outdated, please let us know — we appreciate readers who help us maintain quality.

Editorial Independence

NeuropathyResource.com is independently operated. We are not owned by, affiliated with, or funded by any pharmaceutical company, supplement manufacturer, or healthcare organization. Our content decisions are driven by what will be most helpful to people living with neuropathy — not by commercial interests.
