Editorial Standards

Articles are published by Life Tech Inc, the company behind the Stride wellness app, and are credited to the Stride editorial team unless a named author or reviewer appears on the article itself. When a named licensed professional reviews a piece, their name and credential are shown on that article. We do not invent authors, credentials or reviewers.

Topics are chosen from questions Stride members actually ask and from search demand for everyday nutrition, movement, sleep and habit subjects. Drafts are produced with the help of AI writing tools, using a defined brief that sets the audience, reading level and scope.

Every draft is then checked before it goes live: claims are compared against the sources cited, outbound links are verified against an approved list, dates and figures are checked for currency, and near-duplicates of existing articles are rejected. Drafts that fail those checks are not published.

Health claims are grounded in recognized sources: peer-reviewed research, government and public health bodies, professional and academic institutions, and established clinical references. Each article links to at least one such source so you can read the underlying material yourself.

We do not cite content farms, affiliate roundups, or pages whose purpose is to sell a supplement or program. Links to sites in the Life family of properties are labeled as such by context and are never presented as independent evidence for a health claim.

No diagnosis, dosing instructions, treatment protocols, or advice framed as personal medical direction. No claims that a food, supplement or routine cures, prevents or treats a disease. No extreme calorie targets, fasting protocols or weight-loss claims presented as safe for everyone. No before-and-after promises, guaranteed results, or testimonials we cannot verify.

Articles carry a visible published or updated date. When we find a factual error, we correct it and update that date; when a correction changes the meaning of the article, we say so in the article. Pieces on subjects where guidance shifts are revisited periodically, and articles that no longer hold up are rewritten or removed rather than left standing.

If something looks wrong, email hi@stride.life with the article link and what you believe is inaccurate. We read every one of these.

Articles are not sponsored, and no third party pays for coverage, placement or a favorable mention. Where an article refers to Stride's own features, that is disclosed by context — it is our site — and it never substitutes for a cited source.

Everything we publish is general information and education. It is not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, and it is not a substitute for individualized care. For diagnosis, treatment decisions or personalized nutrition guidance, consult your physician or a licensed dietitian or nutritionist. See our Terms and Privacy Policy for more.
