Standards

What our labels mean, and what they cannot mean.

NAP writes about health, work, and daily life. That only works if you can tell, at a glance, where something came from and how much weight it deserves.

No expert review has been completed yet. Until one has, no page on this site carries an Expert Reviewed badge, and the code that would display it refuses to.

The labels

Each one, in plain terms.

  • Expert Reviewed

    Availability: Planned

    What it means: A named qualified professional read this exact content and confirmed it.

    What it does not mean: It is not personal medical advice, and it is not a recommendation for you.

    Required before it can appear

    • · The reviewer's real name
    • · Their relevant credentials
    • · Their relevant specialty or professional scope
    • · Exactly which content was reviewed
    • · The date it was reviewed
    • · A conflict-of-interest disclosure
    • · Founder approval to publish the label

    Not currently applied to any content on this site.

  • Evidence Informed

    Availability: Available Now

    What it means: Written from credible, authoritative sources, each linked beside the statement it supports.

    What it does not mean: No named professional has personally reviewed this page.

    Required before it can appear

    • · At least one named authoritative source
    • · A link to each source used
  • Founder Experience

    Availability: Planned

    What it means: Anne's own experience, supplied and approved by her.

    What it does not mean: One person's account. Never evidence, and never how narcolepsy works for you.

    • · Explicit founder approval to publish

    Not currently applied to any content on this site.

    • · A community that has actually opened

  • Sponsored

    Availability: Planned

    What it means: A sponsor paid for the placement, and the sponsor is named on the page.

    What it does not mean: A sponsor cannot buy a conclusion, a recommendation, or a review badge.

    Required before it can appear

    • · The sponsor named
    • · The nature of the relationship stated
    • · Editorial control retained by NAP

    Not currently applied to any content on this site.

  • Partner Content

    Availability: Planned

    What it means: A named contributor or partner wrote or co-wrote it.

    What it does not mean: It is not independent NAP editorial, and it is not clinical guidance.

    Required before it can appear

    • · The contributor named
    • · The relationship stated
    • · Who holds editorial responsibility

    Not currently applied to any content on this site.

The review record

Reviews that have actually happened.

There are no reviews to show.

This list is empty because no qualified professional has completed a review of NAP content yet. When one has, their name, credentials, specialty, the exact content they reviewed, the date, and their conflict-of-interest disclosure will appear here — and only then can that content display the Expert Reviewed label.

What cannot be bought

Trust is not a product.

  • A sponsor cannot buy an Expert Reviewed badge.
  • A partner cannot buy a favourable conclusion.
  • An affiliate commission is never a reason to recommend something.
  • Sponsored content is labelled as sponsored, in the same place, every time.
  • NAP does not sell private Planner, Journal, wearable, or health information.
  • Where a page has a review gate, that gate is stated on the page itself.
