Bravoora editorial policy How we write and check every article
Every Bravoora guide is written to answer one question clearly, with each claim tied to a source you can open. Here is who writes them, how they are checked and how they are corrected.

Who writes Bravoora’s articles?
Bravoora’s articles are written and edited by the Bravoora team, and bylines say "Bravoora team". Every article cites its sources, and each source shows the date we last checked it.
A named reviewer is added to an article only when one has reviewed it: a qualified person, such as a licensed pharmacist, dietitian or allergist. We then name them and their registration on the article and on this page.
Does Bravoora use AI to write articles?
Yes, for some drafts. Bravoora writes some drafts with the help of AI tools, and a person then checks every fact against the sources listed on the page before it is published.
How does Bravoora choose and show sources?
Bravoora cites primary sources first and shows every source with its publisher and the date it was last checked:
- Primary sources first: regulators, standards bodies and official health services, such as the US FDA, the UK Food Standards Agency, the NHS, EUR-Lex, the GCC Standardization Organization and the Saudi Food and Drug Authority.
- Every claim that depends on a rule carries a numbered citation that links to its source.
- Each source shows its publisher, its edition where there is one, and the date we last checked it.
- When we rely on a secondary report, the text says so.
How does Bravoora use its own data?
Some Bravoora articles use Bravoora's own work: the public label dictionary and checks of real product listings. Next to every such figure we state the dataset, the date, the sample and its limits. These figures describe what labels say; they are not accuracy claims about any brand.
What do Bravoora articles never do?
Bravoora articles explain labels and rules; four things are out of bounds:
- Call a food or product safe. They explain what a label or a rule says, and what it cannot tell you.
- Rate or rank brands. No brand pays to appear in them.
- Give medical advice. Anyone with a diagnosed allergy should follow their clinician's plan.
- Show a real product in a figure. Sample labels are fictional products, drawn by us.
When are Bravoora articles updated?
Bravoora reviews an article when a rule it cites changes. The "Updated" date changes only when the content does, and every change that affects a fact is listed with its date in the article's change log.
How do I report an error?
To report an error in a Bravoora article, email [email protected] with the page and what should change. We check every report against the source, and confirmed corrections appear in the article's change log.
