AI Disclosure

How we use AI

AI tools may discover sources, read specific publications, organize research, draft copy, map claims to citations and propose evidence ratings. Guides that meet our publication checks may be released automatically under the site owner's standing authorization. The IngredientWiki Editorial Team remains responsible for the published material, but this organizational byline is not proof of a separate human review of each page.

• Our source rules prioritize specific agency guidance, evidence assessments and relevant human studies; a search-results page is not evidence
• The source-check workflow opens cited material and maps it to claims, with study population, formulation and limitations retained
• Automated audits check reference IDs, source URL format, duplicate topics, metadata, builds and release pages; they cannot prove a medical claim is true
• AI can make reading and reasoning errors. Dates and revision notes describe checks performed, not a guarantee of accuracy or clinician approval

Editorial responsibility and review limits

Each guide identifies the IngredientWiki Editorial Team as responsible for the content and shows its source-check date and references. We do not claim that all guides received a separate human check or independent medical review. An individual expert, clinician or reviewer is credited only when their participation can be verified. Readers can report a suspected error using the link on every ingredient page; confirmed substantive corrections are recorded in revision history.

Editorial imagery

Some still-life images on IngredientWiki are created with AI image tools under a consistent editorial art direction. They are decorative illustrations, not photographs of a tested product, laboratory result, chemical structure, or evidence of an ingredient's effects.
