Our Sourcing Philosophy
cure.care prioritizes sources that are widely recognized for their scientific rigor, clinical credibility, and public health relevance.
Our sourcing approach aims to:
- Support factual accuracy using evidence-based data
- Provide clear medical and scientific context for general audiences
- Reduce the risk of health misinformation
- Present information conservatively and responsibly
Important Note: The inclusion of any source does not imply endorsement, affiliation, partnership, or approval by the referenced organization.
Categories of Sources We Use
cure.care primarily draws information from the following high-authority categories:
1. Government & Global Public Health Agencies

- World Health Organization (WHO)
- Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
- National Institutes of Health (NIH)
- MedlinePlus (U.S. National Library of Medicine)
- National Health Service (NHS)
These sources provide widely accepted public health information and consensus-based guidance.
2. Peer-Reviewed Medical & Scientific Literature
Where appropriate, our content may reference findings from:
- Peer-reviewed medical journals (such as The Lancet, NEJM, JAMA)

Such references are used to support general understanding, not to provide clinical guidance.

These sources are used primarily for biological, physiological, and conceptual explanations.
4. Professional Medical Organizations
Some educational content may draw from publicly available materials published by recognized professional organizations and medical associations, such as specialty societies focused on public education and disease awareness.
Editorial Standards for Source Usage
Because cure.care is written for a general audience, all referenced information follows these standards:
- Simplification: Technical and clinical data is simplified for clarity without altering scientific intent
- Conservative Interpretation: Information is presented cautiously to avoid exaggeration or sensationalism
- Transparency: Where appropriate, articles may include citations or links to original sources
References are used to support understanding, not to replace professional medical advice.
Limitations & Ongoing Updates
Medical and scientific knowledge evolves continuously. As such:
- Information reflects guidance and research available at the time of publication

- Some sources may be revised or replaced over time
The ultimate responsibility for health-related decisions rests with the reader, in consultation with a qualified healthcare professional.
