The Healthy @Reader’s Digest: About Us

Our Mission

Health is important…and wellness? It’s everything. At The Healthy @Reader’s Digest, we aim to make both more accessible and inspiring for you.

From the publishers of Reader’s Digest—whose 100 years have made the brand a trusted authority at uncovering developments in health and wellness—The Healthy provides science-backed and expert-approved answers for pressing health topics that resonate in your life. With sound insights around current trends and wisdom and motivation to optimize your nutrition, fitness, illness prevention, love and close relationships, sleep, weight loss for better health, greater longevity, beauty, and so much more, our committed editorial team works to empower you to make practical improvements in your life and help you live just a little bit better each day.

So every day our team—a network of experienced reporters and writers, some of whom themselves are certified specialists—connects with clinical experts throughout the country. These include scientists, doctors, registered dietitians, licensed psychologists, and certified fitness trainers, just to name a few, who share their honest, informed takes on your health questions. Our team relies on recent scientific studies published in peer-reviewed medical journals; breaking updates directly from accredited organizations like the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; first-person stories from individuals who have experienced a specific health concern that’s generating conversations in our culture; and medical experts with years of experience—including our own Medical Review Board.

The time we live in reminds us that wellness is the greatest wealth. The Healthy‘s goal is to equip you with up-to-the-minute clarity, and to enhance your authority in the ways you take care of yourself and the people you love.

Our Medical Review Process

When creating health content it’s crucial to use authoritative experts and to back up claims with references to medical studies published in peer-reviewed journals and science-based facts. The Healthy articles are written by staff editors, qualified writers, and subject-matter contributors. Content with serious medical claims is vetted by a team of consulting doctors and medical professionals that make up our Medical Review Board.

Our Medical Review Team

Our Medical Review team is made up of physicians and other licensed clinicians with significant experience in their fields, including cardiology, dermatology, nutrition, oncology, endocrinology, ophthalmology, and more. These professionals share our commitment to providing our readers with the very best and most authoritative health information on the internet.
