Notices to Mariners
Mariners do not judge a chart by how confident it looks. They check which hydrographic office issued it and whether the corrections have been applied. Three equivalent checks work on any page about prostate health, and they take about two minutes.
An unsigned, undated chart is not a chart. These three are what we hold ourselves to and what you should demand of us.
Nothing here rests on “research shows”. Each claim carries the body or the study behind it by name, so you can go and read it. A source you cannot check is a source you are being asked to take on trust, and this is not a field in which that is wise.
Being able to grade a source is useful and limited. Even the best public guidance is written for populations, and applying it to one person is a separate act of judgement that requires knowing that person. That is what the consultation is for.
Guidance changes, and a page that never changes with it is quietly going out of date. Ours carries a review date, and when a source we relied on is superseded we say so beside the original rather than editing it away. We sell no supplement, hold no affiliate arrangement, and publish no testimonials.
Judging a source is not the same as judging a case. Even guidance from the most careful public body describes what is generally true, and general truths have exceptions that only someone with your history can spot. If a page here and your doctor disagree, that is not a tie to be broken by reading more — it is a question to take to the appointment, because they know something the page cannot.
Health Notice: The material on these pages is general education, nothing more. It arrives at no diagnosis, issues no prescription, and replaces no part of an examination by a qualified physician. Supplements are not a stand-in for eating sensibly or for proper clinical care. Put any change — starting something, stopping something, adjusting a dose — to your doctor before you make it, and understand that as a requirement rather than a suggestion if you take prescription medication or manage an existing condition.
FDA Statement: These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. This website is intended for adults 18 years of age or older.
If a source we cite has been withdrawn, revised, or superseded since we wrote about it, tell us which. That correction is the whole point of the exercise.
