Content Integrity Charter
Dr. Manthan maintains an unwavering dedication to accuracy, scientific citation transparency, independent analysis, and immediate corrective auditing.
1. Absolute Editorial Independence
All clinical findings, product comparisons, and wellness guidelines published on Dr. Manthan are created **independently**. No corporate donor, pharmaceutical lobby, or government agency has the power to suggest, delay, modify, or block our publication decisions.
We write for the reader, not for the corporate board. If an independent study demonstrates that a popular health supplement is ineffective or high-risk, we report those findings transparently and objectively.
2. Strict Primary Sourcing Standards
We do not rely on clickbait journalism or second-hand opinions. Every claim regarding a diagnostic symptom, treatment pathway, or biochemical process must link directly to a **reliable, peer-reviewed primary source**:
- **National & Global Institutions**: WHO (World Health Organization), CDC, NIH (National Institutes of Health).
- **High-Impact Academic Journals**: PubMed, The Lancet, New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), Nature.
- **Direct Citation Links**: Every article footer lists direct scientific references so readers can read the source research papers themselves.
3. Transparent Corrections Policy
Medical knowledge evolves rapidly, and clinical studies are constantly updated. When an error is identified, we react immediately:
- **Immediate Auditing**: Reported errors are assigned to a medical affairs specialist for verification within 24 hours.
- **Visual Notification**: If a correction changes clinical guidance or dosage details, a highlighted "Correction Notice" is placed at the top of the article detailing what was adjusted and why.
- **Date Stamps**: Every post features both "Published On" and "Medically Reviewed On" date stamps.
4. No Conflict of Interest
All our writers and clinical reviewers are required to disclose any financial relationships, corporate sponsorships, or consulting agreements with pharmaceutical or wellness brands.
We proactively exclude any expert from reviewing or writing about a category where a potential conflict of interest is identified, securing 100% objectivity.
