Wellness Desk
Six topics. Each one gets the same treatment: what the label says, what the research measured, and whether those two numbers match.
Bloodwork, blood pressure, VO2 max and grip strength: the measurements that predict something, and the supplements that claim to move them.
7 pagesProtein, fiber, and the handful of dietary changes with enough evidence behind them to be worth the effort.
4 pagesThe fastest-moving and least regulated corner of wellness. GLP-1s, NAD+, BPC-157 and the rest — separated into what has human trials, what needs a prescription, and what is a grey-market vial with a marketing budget.
5 pagesThe category with the widest gap between what the marketing claims and what the label contains. We compare clinical dose to label dose, every time.
14 pagesWhere the correct answer is usually cheap and boring. Sunscreen, ceramides, retinoids, and the shave hardware that stops costing money after you buy it.
4 pagesThe highest-leverage free intervention in wellness, surrounded by the most oversold products. Melatonin dosing, sugar-loaded gummies, wearables that estimate more than they measure, and the handful of things that actually move sleep quality.
5 pagesCortisol, caffeine, L-theanine and the adaptogen shelf — separated into what has human trials and what has a good story.
5 pagesThe literacy column. Proprietary blends, third-party testing, bioavailability, and the arithmetic of cost per serving — the tools you need to judge everything else on this site.
