About 50+ Living: editorial standards

50+ Living is a publication about health after fifty, written for adults who deserve the truth plainly told — including the parts that are still unclear.

Where our information comes from

We cite the World Health Organization, national public-health bodies such as the NHS and the CDC, recognised professional guidelines, systematic reviews and peer-reviewed studies. Every factual claim carries a source and a date. Where guidelines genuinely disagree — prostate screening is the clearest example — we say so rather than picking a side.

What we refuse to do

  • We do not diagnose, or interpret an individual’s results or symptoms.
  • We do not recommend, name or dose any supplement, medicine or protocol.
  • We do not use fear, urgency, countdowns or before-and-after claims.
  • We do not promise outcomes, or imply that decline is a personal failure.
  • We do not sell supplements, and we do not run sponsored health claims. Ever.

Review status — read this carefully

Every article states its review status. Until a named clinician has reviewed a piece, it is marked “sources cited, not medically reviewed”. We will not write “medically reviewed by” on anything until that is literally true, with a name and a credential attached. If you ever see that phrase here without a name, it is a mistake — tell us.

Who publishes this

50+ Living is published by Frederick Adu, RFA. The interest here is not market research: it comes from years of rebuilding a body that needed it.

Corrections

If something here is wrong, we want to know, and we will correct it visibly rather than quietly. Write to us and say which page and what is wrong.

What we will never do with your data

No accounts. No stored health information. No selling or sharing of anything you tell us. See Privacy for the detail.

This is education, not medical advice. It explains what published guidance says and what you can influence. It does not diagnose, does not interpret anyone’s individual test results, and does not replace care from a qualified professional. If something is urgent, seek local help.
