Sources and reading
How we work with the material
A historical description, a possible explanation and a finding from research answer different questions. We keep these distinctions visible when presenting the material.
Start with the question
We begin with basic facts and examine each step in the reasoning. This is often called first-principles thinking: looking at what an explanation rests on, rather than taking its conclusion for granted.
Separate explanation from observed effect
Where relevant, we explain how the body works and how its functions change in disease. A possible mechanism is kept separate from an effect that has been studied in people.
Read sources in context
Traditional descriptions are presented in their historical context. Sources are assessed in relation to the questions they can answer. We describe uncertainty, conflicting findings and relevant safety information.
Use careful, respectful language
We aim to present factual information as objectively as possible. Respect for a tradition or perspective does not remove the need to explain the limits of its sources. Including a subject is not a recommendation to use a treatment or product.
AI and review
AI is used to assist with source searches, structure, language and quality checks. AI review is not independent human expert review. We distinguish the two and describe only the review that has actually taken place.
The homeopathy comparison
The homeopathy tool compares descriptions in the literature. It shows the similarities, differences and sources associated with the selected symptoms. These comparisons are not treatment recommendations, diagnoses or prescriptions.
The limits of the service
Sanabit provides general information and a tool for reading and comparison. It does not provide individual medical assessment. Read each article with its stated scope, limitations and safety information.
