Our Medical Review Process
What Sets Us Apart
Ben’s is a place where holistic healing meets scientific rigor. Like all of our formulas, every piece of content is reviewed and signed off by a relevant professional. From an oncology expert to a dietician, we won’t put anything out there that isn’t fully researched with citations to back it up. You can see our relevant sources either in the text or cited at the end of each article.
Our Sources & Research Standards
Wherever possible, we use citations from The National Institutes of Health, respected global medical journals, and, wherever possible, from studies that are available for review via the National Library of Medicine, particularly the National Center for Biotechnology Information.
In addition, wherever possible we rely on multiple studies that display the same results, or meta studies for validation of theories. Where we have had to rely on paid access journals via JSTOR or physical copies, we will provide full info and page numbers. If we can’t find a source from an article, we won’t use it.
Frequency of Reviews
We run a 24 month review of all of our articles. For our high traffic articles that appear on the first page of search engines, we review them every 12 months. If there are particularly groundbreaking studies that one of our medical researchers comes across, then we will use that as an opportunity to update our relevant articles outside of the normal rotation.
Our Medical Experts
At Ben’s we rely on a wide array of Medical and Naturopathic doctors, Dieticians and Personal trainers. We look to leaders in their fields to put together our guides and insights for you. That’s why you’ll see all our medical articles are written and/or reviewed by doctors, our exercise guides are put together by qualified trainers and our nutrition guides are written by Dieticians or Nutritionists. All of their qualifications are available on their bio pages which you can find by clicking on their author profile at the top of the article.
How We Ensure Quality
Just like our products are accredited by NSF, tested by EuroFins, subject to Good Manufacturing Practices and only made in facilities overseen by the FDA, we are absolutely rigorous when it comes to the quality of our articles.
Our editorial teams will always have their content reviewed by the relevant medical expert and we document the process at the top and bottom of each article. In addition, we follow the same process whenever we hit the 24 month review point. That’s why all of our articles are compliant with Google’s Expertise, Authoritativeness & Trustworthiness guidelines.
Transparency
In addition to our expert driven content and regular review process, we are always gathering feedback from our community. We are in regular discussions with our community via social media, email and telephone. As you can see, we also carry out in person interviews with customers every two years - you can see the videos online. If you ever need to contact us with feedback, we’re available either on the phone 20 hours a day, or via support@bensnaturalhealth.com
Commitment to Your Health
Here at Ben’s we provide complementary treatments. Everything we do improves your health, naturally. We are here to provide an alternative to traditional medical treatments, but we aren’t trying to replace your physician, far from it. We want you to be the healthiest version of yourself and so always advise that you get your doctor’s opinion on your personalized treatment. We’re here to help and so are they.
