About Daily Metabolic Wire

Daily Metabolic Wire is an independent publication covering metabolism, appetite, weight and everyday nutrition for a general adult audience. We write for readers who want the plain version of a subject that is usually sold to them.

What we publish

General-interest explainers and reporting. We try to be explicit about the difference between what is reasonably well established, what is contested, and what is being oversold — including when the thing being oversold is advertised on this site.

What we are not

We are not a medical provider and we do not give medical advice. Nothing here is a diagnosis, a treatment plan, or a substitute for a conversation with a qualified clinician who knows your history. If an article and your doctor disagree, follow your doctor.

How we are funded

This site carries advertising, and some links are affiliate links that may earn us a commission when a reader buys. That relationship is disclosed in full on our Advertising Disclosure page. Advertising pays for the site; it does not buy coverage, and a product being advertised here is not an endorsement of it.

Corrections

If something here is wrong, we want to know and we will fix it. Write to editor@dailymetabolicwire.com and tell us what and where.
