How we write. What we won't say.
The editorial system is designed for careful claims, clear boundaries, and a quieter way to answer high-intent questions.
Clero Health publishes carefully sourced educational articles. This page explains how we decide what belongs on the site, how we use AI, and where we draw the line.
What we won't write
- We don't publish individualized dosing guidance, treatment-decision instructions, or promises about how a medication will work for any one person.
- Medication education must stay sourced, hedged, and clear about the difference between information and medical advice.
- We don't publish state-specific availability claims or imply treatment access before it exists.
- We don't use language that suggests care is available before it is.
How we use AI
Some articles begin as AI-assisted drafts, then go through human editing, fact-checking, and line-by-line review before publication. When AI materially shapes a piece, we say so on the article itself.
Why an editorial byline
Articles produced through the Clero Health editorial workflow carry the byline "The Clero editorial team." We do not publish personal writer bylines, team bios, or individual contributor attribution on public pages. Writers stay anonymous; the standard they write to is public — this page.
Sources
Every factual claim cites a source. Sources appear at the bottom of each article. We prefer primary literature (RCTs, peer-reviewed reviews) over secondary commentary. When the evidence is contested, we say so.
Reviewer attribution
We only display "medically reviewed by" when a credentialed clinician has in fact reviewed that piece — and when we display it, the reviewer is always named, with credentials and a review date. Anonymous medical review does not count, and we don't add a badge for effect. As of July 19, 2026, no published article carries a reviewer badge: we are recruiting a named medical reviewer, and articles will be badged only as reviews actually happen.
Update cadence
Each article shows the most recent update date. When a piece changes in a meaningful way, we track the revision internally through our editorial audit trail.

Changes to this page
When these standards change, the change is dated here.
- July 19, 2026— Codified the attribution policy: writers stay anonymous behind the editorial-team byline; clinicians who review medical content are always named, with credentials and a review date. Removed "expert-sourced" phrasing sitewide — we won't use it until named review exists to back it.
