Editorial Policy

Research and sourcing

We prioritize peer-reviewed research, government and university publications, recognized mycological organizations, and primary sources. Claims are written to reflect the strength and limits of the available evidence.

Identification and health content

Mushroom identification and health information receives extra scrutiny. We avoid declaring wild mushrooms safe to eat remotely and do not present educational material as medical advice.

Review and updates

Pages display publication and update dates. Material changes are reviewed for accuracy, clarity, source quality, and internal consistency before publication.

Corrections

Readers can report a possible error through our contact page. Confirmed errors are corrected promptly and the page update date is revised when the change is substantive.

Independence and advertising

Advertising does not determine our editorial conclusions. Sponsored or affiliate relationships, if introduced, will be clearly disclosed.
