Curiosortsortcomp.lifestyle is a small, independent publication based in West Yorkshire. We started it because wellness advice online tends to swing between two extremes: miracle routines with no evidence, and academic papers no one has time to read. We sit in the middle, translating research into practical, plain-language guides.
Our editorial method
- Hierarchy of evidence: we prefer systematic reviews and meta-analyses, then large cohort studies and randomised trials, then expert guidelines from bodies such as the WHO, NHS, NICE and the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
- Effect size, not just significance: we explain whether a benefit is large enough to matter in daily life.
- Named sources: every guide ends with the studies and books we relied on.
- Regular review: guides are checked at least once a year and updated when new evidence appears.
Independence
We do not accept sponsored articles, affiliate commissions or paid product placements. We have no relationships with supplement brands, app companies or device makers.
What we are not
We are not clinicians, and nothing here replaces individual medical advice. If something on this site does not match your experience or your doctor's guidance, trust your doctor.
