Every EverAble article on nutrition is reviewed by a registered dietitian before it is published. This page explains who she is, what she checks, and what she does not.

What she does not review
Prices, the arithmetic behind each score, the audit of each product’s sources, and copyediting are EverAble’s responsibility, not hers. A dietitian review is not an endorsement of any product, and she does not choose which products we rank.
Independence
Meredith puts her name and professional credentials behind every article she reviews. Her review does not depend on any product’s score or on whether a product earns us a commission, and she does not choose which products we rank. Where she recommends a change and we do something different, we record why.
