Nothing here gets written because it seemed interesting that morning. Every topic is scored on eight measures first, and the queue is worked in that order.
This is the whole list, including everything we have not written yet.
What we score
| Measure | What it asks | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Demand | How many people actually search for it, from our own 1.07 million search records first | 20% |
| Evidence | How strong the research behind it really is | 20% |
| Benefit | How much it helps if someone adopts it, which is a different question from how well studied it is | 15% |
| Traction | Whether we can realistically be found for it, given who else covers it and what we already rank for | 15% |
| Connections | How many other topics it ties together | 10% |
| Safety | Whether we can publish it without risking harm | 10% |
| Direction | Where the science is heading, and whether there is live research to follow | % |
| Product fit | Whether a product exists. Deliberately the smallest weight of the eight | 5% |
Two rules override the score entirely. A topic that scores low on safety cannot carry a product recommendation, whatever its product fit says. A topic with very little evidence behind it cannot become a protocol, because we are not going to tell people to do things on mechanism alone. It can still exist as an explainer.
Priority ranking
All 272 topics, ranked by priority. Priority runs 0 to 100 and is computed from the eight measures above rather than set by hand.
| Topic | Type | Group | Priority | State |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quitting Smoking: What It Does to the Body and the Methods That Actually Work external: very high consumer and clinical search interest (how to quit smoking, quit smoking aids, does vaping help you quit); closes a top internal gap flagged by 6+ condition pages (erectile-dysfunction, male-fertility, macular-degeneration, periodontitis, asthma, infertility). | practice | Breathing | 92 | live |
| Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD / MASLD): what to do first restraint Affects roughly a quarter of adults worldwide and is rising with obesity and type 2 diabetes; high and growing search volume around 'fatty liver', 'NAFLD', 'MASLD' and 'reverse fatty liver', and it connects directly to our type-2-diabetes, metabolic-syndrome and weight topics. | condition | Metabolic | 91 | live |
| Insomnia: a plan that sticks, and where to start restraint log: 'insomnia' 758 + 'sleep' 131, the single highest-volume unmatched condition term. Gui Pi Tang already ranks, so the guide grafts onto a cluster we own. | condition | Sleep | 90 | live |
| Osteoporosis: keeping bone strong restraint Osteoporosis and its search cluster (bone density, DXA/T-score, hip fracture, calcium, vitamin D, bisphosphonates and their side effects, HRT and bone) are high-volume health queries central to aging and to women's health, where half the postmenopausal population is affected over a lifetime. Trust 3: the loading, balance and dietary levers are genuinely self-directed and low-harm, but every fracture-reducing medication decision, and the rebound-on-stopping and atypical-fracture cautions, is timed with a prescriber, and a spine fracture pressing on nerves is an emergency, so restraint stays careful. | condition | Women's | 87 | live |
| The Mediterranean Diet: What It Does, Why It Works, and How to Start log: strong external volume for 'mediterranean diet' and its condition variants, but the term is saturated by mainstream health and recipe sites, hence traction 3. Evidence and benefit are the highest available for any diet: PREDIMED randomized CV and diabetes results plus a 1.5M-person mortality meta-analysis, all pointing the same way, hence direction 5. | practice | Metabolic | 86 | live |
| Menopausal Hormone Therapy: what it does, the risks, and when it fits restraint Hormone therapy (HRT/MHT) is the highest-intent search around menopause and the intervention our women's cluster (menopause, perimenopause, hot flashes, PMS) covers around but not head-on. Evidence 5: the trial record is unusually deep (WHI, ELITE, KEEPS, large route and breast-cancer cohorts). Trust 3 and restraint sensitive: it is a prescription-only, individualized medical decision with real benefit-versus-risk trade-offs, a history of public misreading of the 2002 result, and a marketing layer (compounded 'bioidentical' hormones, salivary testing) that needs restraint and no product bridge. | condition | Women's | 86 | live |
| ADHD: treatment that works, and where to start restraint ADHD is among the highest-volume health search terms across both paediatric and adult intent, spanning diagnosis, medication, natural remedies, diet and supplements, and it connects to our sleep, anxiety and cognition topics. Trust 3: the sleep, exercise and dietary levers are self-directed and low-harm, but stimulant medication is a controlled prescription with real tolerability trade-offs and unregulated focus/calm supplements carry adulteration risk, so restraint stays careful with no unsupervised product bridge on the prescription layer. | condition | Mind | 85 | live |
| Erectile Dysfunction: what works, and the heart check it warrants restraint 'erectile dysfunction' and 'impotence' sit among the higher-demand men's-health condition terms, carrying both informational and strong commercial intent. Careful restraint: the effective tablets are prescription and carry a dangerous nitrate interaction, and the market is saturated with 'male enhancement' products adulterated with undeclared drugs, so no aggressive product bridge whatever the traffic would be worth. The self-directed levers (exercise, diet, weight loss, quitting smoking, pelvic-floor training) lead the page. | condition | Men's | 85 | live |
| Weight Loss: The Single Strongest Lever for Metabolic Health, and What the Trials Actually Show log: enormous external demand for weight loss and its downstream conditions (diabetes remission, fatty liver, sleep apnea), but the space is saturated by commercial diet and weight-loss sites, hence traction 2. Our distinct angle is weight loss itself as the evidence-graded lever, the honest nulls (Look AHEAD cardiovascular, diet-composition), and the biology of regain, which the commercial pages omit. | practice | Metabolic | 83 | live |
| Yoga: What It Does, What the Trials Found, and How to Start log: very high standing search demand for yoga and yoga-for-X (back pain, anxiety, blood pressure); strong adjacency to our tai chi and qi gong home ground, so we can hold the tradition and the trial record together credibly. | practice | Mind | 83 | live |
| Balance and Fall Prevention: The Strongest Lever, and the Causes That Are Not in Your Legs log: no internal volume; adjacent 'dizziness' 216, 'vertigo' 166. Traction 5: high-stakes topic, weak incumbents outside clinical guidelines, and Tai Chi gives us a TCM-native entry nobody else has. | practice | Movement | 82 | live |
| Acupuncture: What the Evidence Shows, Where It Helps Most, and How to Start log: high standing search interest in acupuncture; site authority is exceptional here because this is our own tradition and we can hold the trials and the classical view together, which almost no one else does. Fills the top content gap: eight conditions need a positive acupuncture practice page and none existed. | practice | Pain | 81 | live |
| Neuroplasticity owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | biology | Mind | 81 | live |
| Sodium Reduction & DASH Diet: What Lowers Blood Pressure, and How to Do It log: strong external volume around 'DASH diet', 'low sodium diet' and 'salt substitute'; blood pressure is one of the highest-demand health topics. Evidence is top-tier (multiple large RCTs including DASH, DASH-Sodium and the SSaSS cluster trial, plus Cochrane and dose-response meta-analyses). Traction 3 because general nutrition sites cover it broadly, but few pair the trial base with the two-lens reading and the potassium-safety detail. | practice | Metabolic | 81 | live |
| Type 2 Diabetes: the levers that move it restraint log: 'diabetes' 514, the fourth-highest unmatched condition term, with 'obesity' 159 behind it. Trust 1: readers on glucose-lowering medication can be harmed by unsupervised change, so careful restraint and no product bridge, whatever the traffic would be worth. | condition | Metabolic | 81 | live |
| How Industry Shapes Science owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | science | Foundations | 80 | live |
| High Blood Pressure: measuring it right, and lowering it restraint log: 'hypertension' 434, the eighth-highest unmatched condition term, with 'cholesterol' 152 and 'stroke' 126 nearby, and Tian Ma Gou Teng Yin (891) already ranks for the classical pattern. Trust 1: readers on antihypertensives, so careful restraint. | condition | Metabolic | 80 | live |
| Insulin and Glucose: How the Body Handles a Meal log: 'diabetes' 514 is the fourth-highest unmatched condition term, with 'weight loss' 308 and 'obesity' 159 behind it. Traction 3: glucose explainers are crowded by dedicated diabetes sites that do them well. | biology | Foundations | 80 | live |
| Menopause and Hot Flashes: What the Transition Is and What Helps restraint log: 'menopause' 362 + 'menopausal' 138 + 'hot flashes' 109 + 'night sweats' 101 = 710 family. Our gynecology content is deep, so the guide becomes the hub. | condition | Women's | 80 | live |
| Tai Chi and Qi Gong: What They Do, the Falls Evidence, and How to Start log: adjacent TCM-practice interest; site authority is unusually strong here. Traction 5 because we can hold both the tradition and the trial data credibly and almost nobody else can. | practice | Movement | 80 | live |
| Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: What It Treats, How Strong the Evidence Is, and How to Start restraint log: feeds from the largest unmatched mental-health condition terms, chiefly 'anxiety', 'depression' and 'insomnia' (758, the highest-volume unmatched condition term), plus 'stress' and 'therapy'. Evidence 5: the best-evidenced non-drug treatment for depression, anxiety and chronic insomnia. Connectivity 5: it is a first-line lever across depression, anxiety, insomnia and chronic pain. Money 0: it is a therapy, no product to sell, and the free and guided-self-help routes are named first. | practice | Mind | 79 | live |
| Constipation: which type you have, and what to do restraint log: 'constipation' 612, the third-highest unmatched condition term. Fibre, hydration and the post-meal walk all feed it, and Ma Zi Ren Wan gives us the classical differentiation. Careful restraint because a change in bowel habit after 50 is a red flag. | condition | Metabolic | 79 | live |
| Low Back Pain: why most improves, and what to try first restraint log: 'back pain' 153 + 'low back pain' 88 + 'lower back pain' 77 + 'sciatica' 152 = 470 family, inside a musculoskeletal cluster over 510. | condition | Pain | 79 | live |
| Where the Drugs Came From: The Natural Sources Behind Modern Medicines log: steady volume on individual drug origins (willow bark, ma huang ephedrine, artemisinin). Connectivity is the real score: this page links the herb database to the pharmacopoeia, which nothing else on the site does. | science | Foundations | 79 | live |
| Gout: Lowering the Uric Acid That Drives It restraint Gout is a high-volume, purchase-and-search-active condition (diet questions, uric-acid testing, tart-cherry and supplement demand) and one of the few forms of arthritis where the reader's own diet and weight move the disease markedly. Trust 2: the food and weight levers are genuinely self-directed and low-risk, but a single hot joint can be an infection and any urate-lowering medication decision is timed with a prescriber, so restraint stays careful. | condition | Metabolic | 78 | live |
| Headache and Migraine: telling them apart, and easing them restraint log: 'headache' 425 plus 'migraine' 246 = 671, with 'neck pain' 116 adjacent, and Tai Yang is our most-searched point at 156. Trust 2: thunderclap headache and other red flags mean the page must route to care before it does anything else. | condition | Pain | 78 | live |
| Iron-Deficiency Anemia: How to Correct It and Find the Cause restraint Iron-deficiency anemia is the most common nutritional deficiency worldwide and a high-volume search term spanning symptoms, testing, supplement dosing, diet and pregnancy. Evidence 5: iron replacement reliably corrects the anemia, the alternate-day dosing and intravenous-iron findings are well-characterised, and ferritin is a validated diagnostic. Trust 2: the diet and dosing levers are genuinely self-directed and low-risk, but iron-deficiency anemia in a man or postmenopausal woman can be the presenting sign of a GI cancer and iron is harmful when the anemia is not truly iron-deficient, so restraint stays careful with no unsupervised bridge on the investigation and IV-iron layers. | condition | Metabolic | 78 | live |
| PCOS: what it is, and what helps restraint PCOS affects roughly 8% to 13% of reproductive-aged women and is among the highest-volume women's-health search terms, spanning fertility, skin and hair, and weight intent. Trust 3: the lifestyle and dietary levers are self-directed and low-harm, but ovulation-induction drugs (letrozole), anti-androgens (spironolactone, contraindicated in pregnancy) and unregulated slimming/'hormone balance' supplements each carry real risks, so careful restraint and no unsupervised product bridge on the prescription layer. | condition | Women's | 78 | live |
| Premature Ejaculation: what lengthens the time, and how well restraint 'premature ejaculation', 'how to last longer' and 'delay spray' carry high informational and strong commercial search intent among men's-health terms, with no dedicated internal page yet. Careful restraint: the most effective drugs are prescription (dapoxetine is not approved in the US) or off-label, tramadol carries a dependence risk, and the market is saturated with over-the-counter 'delay' products that are relabelled anaesthetics or unproven, so no aggressive product bridge whatever the traffic would be worth. The self-directed levers (pelvic-floor training, the behavioral techniques, communication) lead the page, and a co-existing erection problem is flagged for treatment first. | condition | Men's | 78 | live |
| Resistance Training: What It Does, the Low Dose That Works, and How to Start log: no internal volume. Enormous external volume but saturated by dedicated fitness sites, hence traction 3. Benefit and evidence are the highest available. | practice | Movement | 78 | live |
| Evening Light and Screens: What Helps Your Sleep, and Where the Gadgets Fall Short log: feeds from insomnia 758 and sleep 131. Large external volume on blue light and screen time. Owner-flagged 2026-07-30: its absence from the insomnia guide was a real gap. | practice | Sleep | 77 | live |
| Heat Exposure: What Sauna and Hot Baths Do, and How to Start log: low internal volume (the historical audience searched TCM terms, not modalities). External volume for sauna/infrared is large. Greenfield: no page of ours ranks for it today. | practice | Heat and cold | 77 | live |
| Kidney Stones: What They Are and What Keeps Them From Coming Back restraint High, durable public search interest in 'kidney stones', 'kidney stone diet', 'how to prevent kidney stones' and 'foods that cause kidney stones'; a common, painful, highly recurrent condition where the best evidence points squarely at self-directed diet and fluid changes. Careful restraint and no product bridge: obstruction with fever is a genuine emergency and medication belongs with a prescriber after a urine workup. | condition | Metabolic | 77 | live |
| Periodontitis: saving the teeth restraint Periodontitis and gum disease are high-volume health searches, and it is one of the conditions where the reader's own daily cleaning and smoking status move the disease markedly. Trust 3: the daily cleaning and professional scaling are low-risk and self-directed, but adjunctive antibiotics are prescribed and a periodontal abscess or spreading infection is a same-day matter, so restraint stays careful. | condition | Senses | 77 | live |
| CBT-I: What It Does for Long-Term Insomnia, Why It Beats Pills, and How to Do It restraint log: feeds directly from 'insomnia' 758, the highest-volume unmatched condition term, and 'sleep' 131. Evidence 5: the best-supported behavioural intervention anywhere in this section, and it is free, which is why money is 0. | practice | Sleep | 76 | live |
| The Truth About Dietary Fat owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | science | Metabolic | 76 | live |
| Endometriosis: what it is, and easing the pain restraint Endometriosis affects roughly 10% of reproductive-aged women and is among the highest-volume women's-health search terms, spanning pain, fertility and ovarian-cyst intent. Evidence 4: hormonal suppression (dienogest, the combined pill, GnRH agonists) and laparoscopic excision have moderate-to-strong trial support for pain and fertility, while diet and supplement data mostly concern risk over years and one randomised supplement trial was null. Trust 2: pain-management, anti-inflammatory eating and pelvic-floor work are self-directed and low-harm, but hormonal drugs, surgery and unregulated slimming or 'hormone balance' products each carry real risks, and a sudden severe pelvic pain can be an emergency, so restraint stays careful with no unsupervised product bridge on the prescription layer. | condition | Women's | 76 | live |
| Enlarged Prostate (BPH): What It Is, What Eases It, and When to Act restraint High, durable public search interest in 'enlarged prostate', 'BPH', 'prostate symptoms', 'tamsulosin', 'saw palmetto' and 'trouble urinating', in a large and aging male audience. Evidence is strong: large randomized trials (MTOPS, CombAT, PLESS) define the medications, and the headline supplement is a clear null. Trust 2 and careful restraint: symptom self-management is genuinely self-directed and low-risk, but acute retention is an emergency and any medication or procedure decision is timed with a prescriber, so no product bridge. Owns the enlarged-prostate story; cancer, PSA and screening stay on prostate-health. | condition | Men's | 75 | live |
| Dementia and Alzheimer's: lowering the risk restraint Dementia and Alzheimer's are among the highest-volume health searches and the healthspan outcome people fear most, spanning prevention, diagnosis, caregiving and the new drugs. Trust 2: the risk-reduction levers are largely self-directed and low-harm, but there is no cure, mild cognitive impairment needs a workup for reversible causes, and every medication decision, especially the anti-amyloid antibodies with their brain-swelling risk, is made with a specialist, so restraint stays careful and there is no product bridge on the treatment layer. | condition | Mind | 75 | live |
| GLP-1 Medications: What They Do, the Trade-offs, and How to Use Them Well external: high consumer search interest (ozempic, semaglutide, glp-1, very high); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | Metabolic | 75 | live |
| Pelvic Floor Muscle Training: What It Does, Why Technique Makes It Work, and How to Start log: 'kegel exercises', 'pelvic floor', 'urinary incontinence' and 'how to stop leaking' carry large external search volume across women's health and men's post-prostate-surgery queries; no dedicated internal page yet. Saturated by general health sites, hence traction 3. Evidence and trust are the highest available: Cochrane Level 1 Grade A, first-line for female stress incontinence. | practice | Pain | 75 | live |
| Testosterone Therapy: Who It Helps, What It Does, and the Trade-offs restraint 'low testosterone', 'low T' and 'TRT' are among the highest-volume men's-health terms, carrying strong commercial intent that a saturated market of low-T clinics and 'testosterone booster' supplements already exploits. Sensitive restraint: the diagnosis is narrower than the marketing, the treatment is prescription and lifelong once started, it suppresses fertility and thickens the blood, and the measured picture is a modest sexual-desire benefit rather than an energy or anti-ageing tonic. Reference only, no product bridge; the self-directed levers (weight loss, sleep, treating sleep apnea, resistance training, less alcohol) lead, and whether to treat is a clinician's decision on confirmed morning labs. | condition | Men's | 75 | live |
| Arthritis and Joint Pain: easing it day to day restraint log: 'arthritis' 300, with 'gout' 177 and 'knee pain' 84 alongside, and Du Huo Ji Sheng Tang (694) already ranks for the Bi-syndrome pattern. Trust 2: inflammatory arthritis needs a rheumatologist and delay causes joint damage, so careful restraint. | condition | Pain | 74 | live |
| Is Buying Organic Worth It? owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Metabolic | 74 | live |
| CBD: Strong Evidence for Rare Epilepsies, Weak Everywhere Else restraint external: very high consumer search interest (cbd, cbd oil, cbd for anxiety, cbd for sleep, cbd for pain); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 74 | live | |
| Depression: treatment that helps, and where to start restraint log: 'depression' 454, the sixth-highest unmatched condition term, sitting inside an 881-search mood family with 'anxiety' 325 and 'stress' 102. Trust 1: suicide risk and antidepressant interactions, so careful restraint, money 0, and a crisis route on the page. | condition | Mind | 74 | live |
| Epigenetics owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | biology | Foundations | 74 | live |
| Macular Degeneration: What Protects Your Sight restraint Age-related macular degeneration is a high-volume older-adult search topic spanning AREDS supplement questions, diet, and the wet-versus-dry distinction, and it sits on unusually strong evidence: landmark RCTs (AREDS, AREDS2) for the formula and the beta-carotene safety signal, and the anti-VEGF trials (MARINA, ANCHOR, CATT) for wet disease. Trust 2: the self-directed levers (not smoking, diet) are low-risk and genuinely move the biggest modifiable factor, but supplement choice carries a real safety trap for smokers, and any wet-AMD sight change is a same-day specialist matter, so restraint stays careful. | condition | Senses | 74 | live |
| Microplastics and Plastic Chemicals owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | science | Frontier | 74 | live |
| Morning Light: What It Does for Your Sleep, Mood, and Body Clock, and How to Get It log: no direct term; feeds from insomnia (758) and depression (454) as the protocol both guides point to. External volume for morning sunlight/circadian is substantial. | practice | Sleep | 74 | live |
| Tretinoin: What It Does for Sun-Aged Skin and Acne, How to Use It, and Who Should Not restraint log: adjacent 'acne' 631, 'wrinkles' and anti-aging interest external and high but saturated by dedicated skincare sites, hence traction 3. Evidence is among the strongest for any topical, with RCTs going back to 1988. | practice | Skin | 74 | live |
| Bipolar disorder: what it is, and what actually helps restraint Bipolar disorder is a high-volume mental-health search term sitting inside the mood family alongside depression and anxiety, and it spans diagnosis, medication, and lived-experience intent. Trust 1: suicide risk, the danger of antidepressant-induced mania, and narrow-therapeutic-index medication (lithium) mean careful restraint, money 0, no product bridge, and a crisis route on the page. | condition | Mind | 73 | live |
| Green Tea and Matcha: What It Does, and the One Catch external: very high consumer search interest (green tea benefits, matcha, EGCG, green tea liver, green tea weight loss); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending. | practice | Metabolic | 73 | live |
| Male Fertility: improving sperm health restraint 'Male fertility', 'sperm count', 'how to improve sperm', 'low sperm count' and 'testosterone and fertility' carry steady informational and commercial intent, and the male side of fertility is under-served relative to the female side. Careful restraint: the market is crowded with sperm-boosting supplements whose live-birth evidence is thin, so the self-directed levers (stopping smoking, weight, alcohol, scrotal heat, sleep) lead the page, with a clear statement that many interventions raise sperm numbers without a shown rise in live births and that testosterone suppresses fertility. | condition | Men's | 73 | live |
| Restless Legs: What Calms the Urge to Move restraint Steady, high public search interest in 'restless legs', 'restless legs remedies', 'what causes restless legs' and 'restless legs iron'. It is a common, sleep-wrecking condition where the strongest lever, checking and repleting iron via serum ferritin, is largely self-directed and low-risk. Trust 3 and careful restraint: iron testing and dietary iron are self-directed, but intravenous iron and the prescription drugs belong with a prescriber, one-sided leg symptoms need clot and neuropathy ruled out, and dopamine-agonist augmentation is a real long-term harm to flag. | condition | Sleep | 73 | live |
| Self-Measures: The Body Numbers You Can Track Yourself, and What Each One Predicts log: no direct term. Traction 5: almost nobody assembles these into one honest page, and it is the free tier under diagnostic-lab-panels, which is the highest-ticket page in the section. | measure | Movement | 73 | live |
| Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) restraint log: 'depression' and 'anxiety' route adjacent interest here; no direct 'tms' term measured above the search floor yet. Evidence 4 and trust 4: FDA-cleared for major depression since 2008, with a large sham-controlled meta-analysis, a 414-patient non-inferiority trial (THREE-D) and pivotal RCTs for OCD and smoking cessation, so this is an established clinical treatment. Benefit 4 for a real, consistent effect in treatment-resistant depression. Restraint careful, not open: it is a practitioner-administered device therapy, most people do not remit, the sham response is substantial, durability without maintenance is limited, and it carries a rare seizure risk and hard contraindications. Momentum 4 because accelerated protocols (SAINT/SNT) and theta-burst are a fast-moving frontier. Money 1: clinic-administered, no product to recommend. | practice | Mind | 73 | live |
| Walking: How Many Steps You Need, and Where the Curve Flattens log: no term at any volume. Traction 3: the step-count question is answered everywhere, usually with the 10,000 figure, which has no research origin. Evidence 5 and benefit 5 are what carry it, not search. | practice | Movement | 73 | live |
| Circadian Entrainment: How the Body Clock Gets Set log: no direct term. A hub mechanism for the entire sleep pillar plus the seasonal series, so connectivity carries it. | biology | Foundations | 72 | live |
| Creatine: What It Does, How Much to Take, and the Kidney Question external: high consumer search interest (creatine monohydrate, very high); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 72 | live | |
| Dizziness and Vertigo: Which Kind You Have, and What Helps restraint log: 'dizziness' 216 plus 'vertigo' 166 = 382, already cited as the adjacency under balance and falls. Evidence 4: the Epley manoeuvre has strong trial support. Trust 1: sudden vertigo can be posterior-circulation stroke, so red flags lead and money is 0. | condition | Senses | 72 | live |
| Period Pain (Dysmenorrhea): what eases the cramps restraint log: 'dysmenorrhea' 110 plus 'endometriosis' 172 and 'fibroids' 124, and Wen Jing Tang (680) and Shao Fu Zhu Yu Tang (430) are already searched. Evidence 4: topical heat and acupressure both have real trial support. Trust 2: endometriosis is under-diagnosed and the page must say so. | condition | Women's | 72 | live |
| Grip Strength: What It Tells You log: no term at any volume. Evidence 5 rests on the PURE cohort, which measured grip in nearly 140,000 adults across 17 countries. Traction 5: the finding is famous and the page that tells you how to actually measure it is not. | measure | Movement | 72 | live |
| The Low-FODMAP Diet: What It Is, How the Three Phases Work, and What the Evidence Shows log: 'ibs' and 'irritable bowel' plus the bloating and constipation condition terms send readers here; the low-FODMAP diet is the #1 dietary lever for IBS and was the top missing dietary practice. Traction 4: heavily covered by the Monash program and consumer apps, though the three-phase and reintroduction discipline usually is not. Momentum 3: active trial base comparing it to simpler advice and refining the reintroduction. | practice | Metabolic | 72 | live |
| The Placebo Effect external: 'placebo effect' / 'placebo' carry substantial evergreen consumer and student search interest; internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending. Primarily a hub and trust page: it underwrites the two-lens epistemic stance (EDITORIAL-STANDARD §3.5) and is linked from practice pages whose benefit may run partly through expectation, so connectivity and trust carry it more than entry search. | biology | Foundations | 72 | live |
| Protein and Muscle: the dose, the sources, and building it log: 'weight loss' 308, 'obesity' 159 as adjacent intent. Saturated externally, hence traction 3; our angle is the TCM Spleen-and-flesh bridge plus honest dose numbers. | practice | Metabolic | 72 | live |
| Seed Oils: What the Evidence Shows restraint Seed oils are one of the most searched and most argued nutrition topics of the moment, driven by social-media claims of toxicity. Traction 3 because the term is contested and crowded, but our differentiator is an even-handed, evidence-led treatment that neither camp offers. Trust 5 and direction 3 reflect that the honest answer is genuinely two-sided: strong data against the toxicity claim, real cautions on reheated oil and the ultra-processed vehicle. | practice | Metabolic | 72 | live |
| The Sleep Environment: What Changes How You Sleep, the Free Fixes, and When to Buy log: insomnia 758 + night sweats 101 + hot flashes 109 route here. The buying questions in the sleep pillar concentrate on this page rather than on the condition guide. | practice | Sleep | 72 | live |
| Acne: what clears it, in order restraint log: 'acne' 631, the second-highest unmatched condition term in the entire 1.07M log and our single largest condition gap after insomnia. Xiao Feng San (652) and our damp-heat content already cover the pattern side. Trust 2: a largely adolescent audience, so no product bridge. | condition | Skin | 71 | live |
| Doing Hard Things: What the Research on Discipline Actually Found log: no direct term. External interest is large and growing (The Comfort Crisis, Goggins, discipline/habit queries). Scored low on demand deliberately: it earns its traffic through internal links and shares, not search. | guide | Foundations | 71 | live |
| Metformin: A Proven Diabetes Drug and the Open Longevity Question owner directive 2026-08-01 (frontier longevity batch, canonical TAME topic beside berberine, GLP-1 agonists, rapamycin, senolytics); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Frontier | 71 | live |
| Sleep Apnea: what to try first restraint log: no direct term, which is itself the finding: readers searching insomnia (758) and fatigue (119) may be searching the wrong thing. Its job is to route people to a diagnosis. | condition | Sleep | 71 | live |
| The Minimum Effective Dose of Strength Training log: no term at any volume. It operationalizes the existing resistance-training topic at the dose the trials actually used, and that gap between trial dose and gym-culture dose is the reason it needs its own page. | practice | Movement | 71 | live |
| Weight and Metabolic Health: the levers that matter restraint log: 'weight loss' 308 plus 'obesity' 159 = 467. Traction 2: the most commercially saturated category on the internet and we will not win it on volume. Direction 5: the GLP-1 era means this page has to be built to be rewritten. Trust 2: disordered-eating readers, so careful. | condition | Metabolic | 71 | live |
| Hay Fever (Allergic Rhinitis): what brings relief log: 'allergies' 200 plus 'allergy' 118 plus 'sinusitis' 164 = 482, and Bi Yan Pian (384) is a searched formula with no condition page pointing at it. Traction 5: that formula-to-condition link is ours to make and nobody else has the formula documented. | condition | Breathing | 70 | live |
| Anxiety: what helps, in order restraint log: 'anxiety' 325 + 'depression' 454 + 'stress' 102 = 881 family. Trust 2: vulnerable audience, so no product bridge at all. | condition | Mind | 70 | live |
| Bovine Colostrum: What the Trials Show and the Marketing Around It restraint external: breakout consumer and social search interest in 2024-2025 (bovine colostrum, colostrum supplement, colostrum gut health); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 70 | live | |
| Irritable Bowel Syndrome: calming the gut restraint log: 'ibs' 125 plus 'irritable bowel syndrome' 76 = 201, with 'diarrhea' 268 nearby. Evidence 4: low-FODMAP and gut-directed hypnotherapy both have real trial support. Trust 2: IBS is a diagnosis of exclusion and the red flags matter. | condition | Metabolic | 70 | live |
| Omega-3 and Fish Oil: Clear on Triglycerides, Mixed on the Heart external: high consumer search interest (fish oil, omega 3); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 70 | live | |
| The Oral Microbiome owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | biology | Metabolic | 70 | live |
| The Post-Meal Walk: How Soon, How Long, and What It Actually Lowers log: diabetes 514 and weight loss 308 are the conditions it feeds. Free, stacks onto an existing daily event, and the mechanism is well measured. | practice | Metabolic | 70 | live |
| VO2max Training: The Fitness That Best Predicts a Long Life, and How to Build It log: no term at any volume. Scored on the fitness-and-mortality cohort literature, which is among the strongest evidence in the whole section. Traction 3: endurance-training sites cover the how well. | practice | Movement | 70 | live |
| Alcohol and Your Health: What the Evidence Shows Now restraint log: no direct term. Money 0 and evidence 5: the clearest possible demonstration that the queue is not commission-driven. | practice | Metabolic | 69 | live |
| Walking Speed: The Sixth Vital Sign log: no term at any volume. Scored on the pooled-cohort survival literature in older adults and on costing nothing to perform. Money 0 by construction. | measure | Movement | 69 | live |
| Fertility and Trying to Conceive: what improves the odds restraint log: 'infertility' 443, the seventh-highest unmatched condition term, with 'pregnancy' 421 alongside, and our gynecology formulas already draw traffic (Wen Jing Tang 680, Er Xian Tang 609). Trust 1: a vulnerable, high-spend audience where false hope does measurable damage. | condition | Women's | 69 | live |
| Muscle as an Organ log: no term at any volume. Traction 5: myokine biology is barely covered outside review journals, and it is the mechanism page under resistance training, walking, protein and the metabolic pillar at once. | biology | Foundations | 69 | live |
| Perimenopause: what eases the transition restraint log: no direct term for perimenopause; it sits inside the 710-search family already cited on the menopause topic ('menopause' 362 + 'menopausal' 138 + 'hot flashes' 109 + 'night sweats' 101). Splitting it out is the point, since the transition years are where readers are most confused and worst served. | condition | Women's | 69 | live |
| Recurrent UTIs: preventing the next one restraint Recurrent UTI is a high-frequency women's-health search with strong purchase intent around cranberry, D-mannose and hydration, and it maps cleanly onto our TCM Lin syndrome content. Trust 2 and careful restraint: most cases are self-manageable, but pyelonephritis, blood in the urine, pregnancy, and infections in men or children are genuine red flags, so the page leads with self-help and keeps the safety net explicit. | condition | Women's | 69 | live |
| Sciatica: easing the leg pain restraint log: 'sciatica' 152 within the musculoskeletal 'back pain' family of 470, and the nerve-related leg pain split out of the low-back-pain guide, which cross-links to it. External volume for sciatica is large and purchase-adjacent (seats, supports). | condition | Pain | 69 | live |
| Social Connection: isolation, loneliness, and a longer life log: no direct term; adjacent 'depression' 454, 'anxiety' 325. Money 0 by nature, which is exactly why it belongs early: it is the clearest signal the section is not a storefront. | practice | Mind | 69 | live |
| Living With the Four Seasons log: adjacent seasonal-pattern interest ('wind cold' 204, 'damp cold' 93). Traction 5: uniquely ours, recurring seasonal traffic, and it draws on theory pages we already rank for. | guide | Foundations | 69 | live |
| Whole Foods and Ultra-Processed Foods: What the Evidence Shows and How to Eat Well log: 'diet' 103 and 'food' 104, small numbers for the largest subject in the section. Traction 2 deliberately: general nutrition is the most saturated category on the internet and we will not out-rank dedicated nutrition sites. The page exists so everything else has somewhere honest to point. | practice | Metabolic | 69 | live |
| Caffeine: What It Does, the One Catch for Sleep, and How to Use It Well log: no direct term; it is the most common reversible cause behind insomnia 758 after alcohol, so it earns its place through the sleep pillar rather than through search. | practice | Sleep | 68 | live |
| Dietary Nitrate and Beetroot Juice: The Research, the Practice, and How to Use It Steady public interest in beetroot juice for blood pressure and in beetroot shots as a pre-workout, with substantial external search volume around 'beetroot juice blood pressure' and 'beetroot for exercise'. No large internal search log signal, hence traction 3. Evidence is strong for the mechanism and blood pressure, moderate and nuanced for exercise. | practice | Metabolic | 68 | live |
| Protecting Your Hearing log: no term for hearing itself above the 70-search floor; 'tinnitus' 416 and 'ear' 157 are the doorway readers actually use. Benefit 4 comes from the dementia-risk literature, not from search volume. | practice | Senses | 68 | live |
| Hormesis: How a Low Dose of Stress Strengthens and a High Dose Harms log: no measurable volume. A hub mechanism: invoked by heat, cold, contrast, fasting, load, and the doing-hard-things thread, so connectivity carries it. | biology | Foundations | 68 | live |
| Hydration and Electrolytes: How Much Water You Need, and When Salt Actually Matters log: no direct term, and it sits underneath heat, cold, training and sleep, which is why it scores 5 on connections. Owner-flagged 2026-07-30 as a missing standalone topic. | practice | Metabolic | 68 | live |
| Iodine: How Much Your Thyroid Actually Needs restraint external: steady consumer search interest (iodine, iodine deficiency, iodine supplement, kelp, iodized salt); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 68 | live | |
| Isometric Handgrip Training for Blood Pressure restraint log: feeds from 'hypertension' 434, the eighth-highest unmatched condition term. Traction 5: the 2023 network meta-analysis result is barely written up for general readers. Trust 2: readers on antihypertensives plus the Valsalva risk, so careful restraint and no product. | practice | Metabolic | 68 | live |
| Neck and Shoulder Pain: easing it and keeping it away log: 'neck pain' 116 plus 'shoulder pain' 116 = 232, inside the musculoskeletal cluster already cited on low back pain. Ge Gen Tang (613) is the classical formula for exactly this presentation, and Feng Chi (107) is a top-ten searched point. | condition | Pain | 68 | live |
| Nitric Oxide and the Endothelium log: no direct term. Invoked by heat, cold, movement, red light and several conditions. | biology | Foundations | 68 | live |
| Pranayama: What Yogic Breathing Does, the Techniques, and How to Start log: no direct 'pranayama' term above the search floor; adjacent 'anxiety' 325, 'stress' 102, and blood-pressure and asthma intent send readers here. Bridges to breath-and-hrv, qi gong and yang sheng, a connection general breathing sites do not hold. Evidence 4 for multiple meta-analyses tempered by unblindable, heterogeneous trials; benefit 4 for consistent modest gains across blood pressure, anxiety and airway disease. | practice | Mind | 68 | live |
| Saffron for Mood: What the Trials Show and How to Take It external: fast-rising consumer interest in saffron and branded saffron mood extracts (affron); adjacency to our depression and anxiety condition pages and to omega-3 as the other mood supplement lets us hold the trial record and the traditional use together credibly. Internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending. | practice | 68 | live | |
| Sun Exposure: Vitamin D, the Body Clock, and Skin Cancer restraint log: sun exposure, sunbathing, vitamin D from sun and skin-cancer risk carry substantial external volume; internally it links from vitamin-d, morning-light and depression. High connectivity across the light family and the skin pillar. | practice | Skin | 68 | live |
| Apple Cider Vinegar: What the Blood-Sugar Evidence Shows restraint external: very high consumer search interest (apple cider vinegar, ACV weight loss, ACV blood sugar); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 67 | live | |
| Cooling Your Sleep: Devices vs the Basics restraint log: 'night sweats' 101, 'hot flashes' 109, 'menopause' 362 all point here; feeds from insomnia 758. Page already exists in the wrong section and needs migrating (spec §2.1). | compare | Sleep | 67 | live |
| DEXA Scanning owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | measure | Metabolic | 67 | live |
| Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis): calming the skin restraint log: 'eczema' 388, plus 'hives' 95 and 'urticaria' 82. Xiao Feng San (652) is one of our better-searched formulas, so the guide grafts onto a cluster we already own. Trust 2: paediatric readers, so careful restraint. | condition | Skin | 67 | live |
| Fluoride: What It Does for Teeth, and the Dose Question in the Water restraint owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | science | Foundations | 67 | live |
| Mechanotransduction log: no term at any volume. Scored on connectivity: it is the shared mechanism under resistance training, walking, grip, bone loading, fascia and the acupuncture needle-grasp literature, so it is written once and linked from a dozen pages. | biology | Foundations | 67 | live |
| Panax Ginseng: What the Root Does, and What the Trials Show external: high consumer search interest (ginseng, Korean red ginseng, ginseng benefits, all high); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 67 | live | |
| Rucking: Walking Under Load, and What the Evidence Covers log: no internal volume. Growing external interest in rucking as a trend, less saturated than resistance training by dedicated fitness sites, hence traction 4. Evidence 3 because the direct rucking trials are limited and most findings are extrapolated from load-carriage and weighted-vest research. | practice | Movement | 67 | live |
| Estimating Your VO2 Max log: no term at any volume. The underlying fitness-and-mortality literature is among the strongest in the section; the honest part of the page is how far a wrist estimate sits from a laboratory measurement. | measure | Movement | 67 | live |
| Acupressure and Self-Massage: The Research, the Points, and How to Use Them log: no term for 'acupressure' above the 70-search floor, but point demand is real and already ours: Tai Yang 156, Zu San Li 141, Ding Chuan 137, Yin Tang 132, An Mian 66. Traction 5: 406 sourced point pages make this the topic where our library is the differentiator outright. | practice | Pain | 66 | live |
| Cocoa Flavanols: What They Do for Blood Pressure, Arteries and Memory external: high consumer search interest (cocoa flavanols, dark chocolate blood pressure, cocoa for heart); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending. | practice | 66 | live | |
| Cold Plunge Setups: DIY vs Buying log: no internal volume; substantial external buying intent. Traction 5: the build-your-own route is barely covered by anyone selling the finished product. | compare | Heat and cold | 66 | live |
| Grip Strength Training log: no term at any volume. Traction 5: the prediction finding is famous, the intervention question is almost never separated from it, and that separation is exactly the kind of honesty this section is for. | practice | Movement | 66 | live |
| Infrared vs Traditional Sauna log: no internal volume; substantial external comparison intent. Traction 5: a buying question that almost every existing page answers with whatever it sells. | compare | Heat and cold | 66 | live |
| Mitochondria and Energy log: no direct term above the capped unmatched list's 70-search floor. A hub mechanism under fatigue (119), heat, cold, zone 2 and red light, and the most oversold word in supplement marketing, which is what makes the honest version worth ranking. | biology | Foundations | 66 | live |
| Nasal Breathing and Mouth Taping: What Each One Does, and the Safety Line on Taping restraint Nasal breathing and mouth taping are trending hard on social media (TikTok, wellness press), so search traction is high while the measured evidence is thin. Strong adjacency to breath-and-hrv and to the respiratory conditions (allergic rhinitis, asthma), and a genuine bridge to the qi gong and yang sheng emphasis on fine, slow nasal breathing. | practice | Breathing | 66 | live |
| NMN and NR: Oral NAD+ Precursors, and What Raising the Marker Does restraint external: sustained consumer and creator interest in NAD+ boosters (NMN/NR) driven by longevity marketing; internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending. Distinct from the existing IV NAD+ page (oral-precursor supplement story). | practice | Frontier | 66 | live |
| Red Light Therapy (Photobiomodulation) log: adjacent 'acne' 631, 'hair loss' 214, 'alopecia' 83 (the indications with the best evidence). Money 5, which is precisely why the grading has to be per indication. | practice | Skin | 66 | live |
| SGLT2 Inhibitors: Kidney Glucose Drugs at the Edge of the Longevity Question owner directive 2026-08-02 (frontier longevity batch, alongside metformin, GLP-1 agonists, rapamycin); strong clinical and creator interest (Topic Radar, cardiorenal guideline shifts and longevity commentary); internal 1.07M-log volume not yet measured. | practice | Frontier | 66 | live |
| The One-Leg Stand Test log: no term at any volume; adjacent 'dizziness' 216 and 'vertigo' 166. It needs its own page rather than a line inside a list, because it is the single most-shared statistic in this field and the most frequently stripped of its confounders. | measure | Movement | 66 | live |
| Time-Restricted Eating: What It Does, Where to Place the Window, and How to Start restraint log: 'diabetes' 514, 'weight loss' 308 as the conditions this feeds. Direction 5: several large trials reading out, so the page has to be built to be updated. | practice | Metabolic | 66 | live |
| Breathwork and HRV: The Research, the Practice, and How to Start log: no direct term; adjacent 'anxiety' 325, 'stress' 102. Connects to qi gong breath practice, which gives us a bridge nobody else holds. | practice | Mind | 65 | live |
| COVID-19 Treatments: What the Trials Found for Remdesivir and Ivermectin strong public interest in the COVID-19 treatment evidence for remdesivir and ivermectin; search volume not yet measured in the log. | science | Foundations | 65 | live |
| Blood Tests: Which Markers Change a Decision, and Which Panels Do Not restraint log: adjacent 'cholesterol' 152, 'thyroid' 256. Trust 2 forces careful restraint: over-testing, false positives and incidental findings are real harms, so the honest page is the product. | practice | Metabolic | 65 | live |
| Dietary Fiber: What Each Type Does and How Much to Eat log: no direct term for fibre above the 70-search floor; 'constipation' 612, the third-highest unmatched condition term, is what sends readers here. Traction 3: widely covered, though the honest dose figures and the IBS exception usually are not. | practice | Metabolic | 65 | live |
| Magnesium: What It Does, Which Form to Take, and How Much external: high consumer search interest (magnesium, magnesium glycinate); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 65 | live | |
| Napping: How Long to Nap, When to Take It, and What the Heart-Disease Studies Are Measuring log: no direct term; feeds from the sleep cluster, chiefly insomnia (758) and sleep (131), and from caffeine and fatigue queries. Broad public interest in the power nap, the caffeine nap and the recurring napping-and-mortality headlines. Pairs closely with sleep-regularity, cbt-i-protocol and caffeine. | practice | Sleep | 65 | live |
| Sleep Regularity: Why a Steady Schedule May Matter More Than Hours log: no direct term; feeds from insomnia (758) and the wider sleep cluster. External interest in sleep regularity and the Sleep Regularity Index is rising fast since the 2024 UK Biobank mortality finding. Pairs closely with morning-light and sleep-environment. | practice | Sleep | 65 | live |
| The Stress Axis (HPA) log: 'stress' 102 is the only direct term, and it is a symptom search rather than a mechanism search. Scored on connectivity: cortisol rhythm is invoked by the sleep, mind, metabolic and women's pillars alike, so a dozen pages will link into it. | biology | Foundations | 65 | live |
| Thermoregulation log: no direct term; 'night sweats' 101 and 'hot flashes' 109 are its reader-facing edge. Connectivity 5 because heat, cold, cooling sleep, the sleep environment and menopause all resolve to this one mechanism. | biology | Foundations | 65 | live |
| What to Do First log: no term at any volume. It is the section's entry point, measured by depth-of-visit rather than by search, and money 0 is structural: its job is to stop a reader buying anything before they have done the free things. | guide | Foundations | 65 | live |
| Asthma: getting it under control restraint log: 'asthma' 495, the fifth-highest unmatched condition term, and Ding Chuan ('stop asthma') is already our third most-searched point at 137. Trust 1: asthma kills people who delay a rescue inhaler, so no product and a route to care up front. | condition | Breathing | 64 | live |
| The Gut-Brain Axis log: no direct term; it is fed by 'ibs' 125, 'anxiety' 325 and 'depression' 454. Traction 5: the Chinese medicine reading of the Spleen as the seat of thought and worry is ours to bridge, and the mouse-to-human leap in this field is where most coverage fails. | biology | Foundations | 64 | live |
| NAC and Glycine: A Proven Antidote, a Steady Mucolytic, and the GlyNAC Longevity Story restraint external: rising consumer search interest (NAC, glutathione, GlyNAC longevity); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 64 | live | |
| SIBO: What the Evidence Actually Supports restraint SIBO is a high-volume, purchase-active search term (breath-test kits, elemental formulas, herbal antimicrobial protocols) sitting in the same demand cluster as IBS, bloating and constipation. Evidence 3: rifaximin and low-FODMAP have real trial support but almost all of it is in IBS rather than culture-confirmed SIBO, and the diagnostic test is contested. Trust 2: the diagnosis is unsettled, protocols are heavily marketed, and any antibiotic or acid-blocker decision is timed with a prescriber, so restraint stays careful. | condition | Metabolic | 64 | live |
| Alpha-Lipoic Acid: Strongest for Diabetic Nerve Pain restraint external: steady consumer search interest (alpha-lipoic acid, ALA supplement, ALA for neuropathy); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 63 | live | |
| Breaking Up Sitting: Movement Snacks Through the Day, and What They Change log: no term at any volume. The postprandial-glucose interruption trials are small but consistent, it is free, and money 0 is part of why it belongs early. | practice | Movement | 63 | live |
| Hair Loss: what slows and reverses it restraint log: 'hair loss' 214 plus 'alopecia' 83 = 297, already cited as an indication under red-light therapy. Money 4 with evidence 3 is exactly the shape that goes wrong elsewhere, which is why the grading has to be per intervention and the restraint careful. | condition | Skin | 63 | live |
| Moxibustion: What the Research Shows and How It Is Used restraint log: 'moxibustion' 137, a real internal term with no page behind it. Traction 5: our own library backs it and the breech trial record is a case study in how a promising finding shrinks under better methods. Careful restraint because burns and smoke exposure are real. | practice | Pain | 63 | live |
| Rapamycin: The Strongest Animal Longevity Drug, and Where the Human Evidence Stands owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Frontier | 63 | live |
| Senolytics: Clearing Worn-Out Cells, the Mouse Data, and Where the Human Trials Are owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Frontier | 63 | live |
| Vitamin D restraint external: high consumer search interest (vitamin d, very high); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 63 | live | |
| Yang Sheng (養生): Nourishing Life log: no measurable volume for 'yang sheng' (a term readers do not search). Built for identity and internal linking, not entry traffic. | guide | Foundations | 63 | live |
| Discipline, Curiosity, and Play: The Motivation That Lasts external: strong interest in discipline/motivation/habit content; internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | guide | Mind | 62 | live |
| Why Controlled Trials Beat Testimonials: What the Placebo Effect Proves About Evidence restraint log: no direct term; large external interest via popular authors. Traction 5: the honest version of this page does not exist anywhere, and it is the page that earns the right to the whole mindset family. | science | Mind | 62 | live |
| Fatigue and Low Energy restraint log: 'fatigue' 119, small next to 'insomnia' 758, which is itself the finding: tired readers search for sleep. Trust 2: fatigue is the presenting symptom of anaemia (92), thyroid disease (256), sleep apnea and cancer, so the page routes to diagnosis first. | condition | Sleep | 62 | live |
| OCD: what helps, in order restraint OCD is a high-interest condition term in the mood and anxiety cluster (log: 'anxiety' 325, 'depression' 454, 'stress' 102) with no dedicated page yet, and it links tightly to the anxiety, depression, and CBT pages we already own. Trust 1: harm-obsession sensitivity, raised suicide risk, and antidepressant interactions, so careful restraint, money 0, no product bridge, and a crisis route on the page. | condition | Mind | 62 | live |
| Parasites: How They Are Found and Treated restraint owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | condition | Metabolic | 62 | live |
| The Sit-to-Stand Test log: no term at any volume. Scored on the functional-decline and falls literature it comes from, and on being usable by a reader with a kitchen chair and no equipment. | measure | Movement | 62 | live |
| Sprinting and Power Training: What Fast, Forceful Work Does log: no internal term volume. External volume exists but is saturated by dedicated fitness and athletics sites, hence traction 3. Scored on the sprint-interval, plyometric, power-training and jump-bone literature, which is moderate and consistent; the aging-power picture is observational. | practice | Movement | 62 | live |
| Tongkat Ali: What the Trials Actually Show restraint external: sharp rise in consumer search interest in 'tongkat ali' and the 'tongkat ali Fadogia' stack across men's-health media and marketplaces; internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending. Careful restraint: a hype-heavy men's supplement where the measured effect is modest and concentrated in hypogonadal or older men, the trial base is small and partly manufacturer-funded around one branded extract, product quality varies (heavy-metal contamination documented), it is not a testosterone-replacement therapy, and the common stack partner Fadogia agrestis has no human trials plus an animal testicular-toxicity signal. Self-directed levers (weight, sleep, resistance training, less alcohol) lead; whether low testosterone warrants treatment is a clinician's call on confirmed labs. | practice | 62 | live | |
| Zone 2 Cardio: What the Training Does, and Where the Claims Run Ahead of the Evidence log: no term at any volume. Large and recent external interest driven by podcasts. Traction 4: the gap between the training literature and the popular protocol is wide enough that saying so is itself the differentiator. | practice | Movement | 62 | live |
| Clean Water and Remineralization restraint owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Foundations | 61 | live |
| Cold Exposure: what it does, the risks, and how to start restraint log: no internal volume. Large and growing external interest. Trust scored 2 because cold-shock is a genuine cardiac and drowning risk, which forces careful restraint. | practice | Heat and cold | 61 | live |
| Ivermectin: A Nobel-Winning Antiparasitic, and the COVID Story in Full owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Frontier | 61 | live |
| Low-Dose Naltrexone (LDN): What the Evidence Shows, and Where It Stops owner directive 2026-08-02 (content wave); very heavy public search interest in LDN and large off-label patient community (Topic Radar), search volume not measured in the internal log. | practice | Frontier | 61 | live |
| Melatonin: The Body's Darkness Signal restraint external: high consumer search interest (melatonin); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 61 | live | |
| Oral Health: What Protects Your Teeth and What the Mouth-Body Link Shows log: 'teeth' 74, barely above the capped list's 70-search floor, and no term for 'gums' or 'periodontal' at all. Scored on benefit and connectivity rather than demand: periodontal disease tracks with cardiovascular and diabetes outcomes and the causal question is genuinely open. | practice | Senses | 61 | live |
| PMS and PMDD restraint log: 'pms' 77, only just above the capped list's 70-search floor, with 'menstruation' 76 alongside. Small internal volume, large external volume, and Xiao Yao San (2,857) is our single most-searched formula, which is why traction is 5 and demand is only 2. | condition | Women's | 61 | live |
| The Eight Brocades (Ba Duan Jin): The Research, the Movements, and How to Start log: no term for 'qi gong' or 'qigong' above the 70-search floor. Traction 5: Ba Duan Jin has a real but uneven trial literature, and holding the eight movements and the risk-of-bias problem in the same page is something only a site with our footing can do. | practice | Movement | 61 | live |
| Stem Cells and Exosomes: The Proven Uses, the Clinic Market, and Where the Harm Is owner directive 2026-08-02 (Content Wave, Frontier tier); strong public and creator interest in regenerative and anti-aging stem-cell and exosome offerings (Topic Radar); search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Frontier | 61 | live |
| Taurine: The Aging Headline, and What the Evidence Shows external: sharp rise in consumer search interest following the June 2023 Science aging paper and its press coverage; internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 61 | live | |
| Thyroid Health restraint log: 'thyroid' 256 plus 'hypothyroid' 89 = 345. Trust 1: levothyroxine timing, absorption interactions and supplement iodine are a genuine harm surface, so careful restraint and no product bridge. | condition | Metabolic | 61 | live |
| The Wahls Protocol restraint owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Frontier | 61 | live |
| Walking vs Running log: no term at any volume. It exists to answer a decision readers actually face, and to correct the knee-damage belief, which the cohort data contradicts. | compare | Movement | 61 | live |
| Acarbose: The Old Diabetes Drug That Extends Life in Mice owner directive 2026-08-02 (frontier longevity batch, alpha-glucosidase inhibitor beside metformin, rapamycin, senolytics); strong public and creator interest via the ITP mouse-lifespan result (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Frontier | 60 | live |
| Cholesterol and Lipids: What the Numbers Mean restraint log: 'cholesterol' 152, already cited as an adjacency under diagnostic lab panels. Traction 3: clinical sites cover lipids well. Trust 1: statin decisions are a place a wellness page can do real harm, so careful restraint and no product. | condition | Metabolic | 60 | live |
| Ginkgo Biloba: What the Big Memory Trials Actually Found restraint external: high consumer search interest (ginkgo biloba, ginkgo for memory); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 60 | live | |
| Making It Stick: How Behavior Change Holds log: no term at any volume. Traction 3: behaviour-change writing is crowded and much of it repeats a 21-day figure with no research behind it. Connectivity 5: every protocol in the section needs somewhere to send a reader who knows what to do and does not do it. | guide | Foundations | 60 | live |
| Inflammation, Acute and Chronic log: no direct term; 'eczema' 388, 'arthritis' 300 and 'psoriasis' 293 all route through it. Traction 3 because 'anti-inflammatory' is the single most saturated phrase in wellness publishing, so we compete on precision rather than on the keyword. | biology | Foundations | 60 | live |
| Vagus Nerve Stimulation owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Mind | 60 | live |
| The Biology of Aging restraint log: no direct term at any volume. External interest is large and the consumer test market is aggressive, which is why direction is 5 and restraint is careful: the clocks are not validated for individual decisions and are sold as if they were. | science | Foundations | 59 | live |
| Chronic and Acute Cough: what settles it restraint log: 'cough' 351 plus 'sore throat' 229 and 'bronchitis' 98, and Sang Ju Yin (908) and Zhi Sou San (574) already rank. Traction 5 because that pattern split is ours to make. Trust 2: a cough lasting over three weeks needs a doctor, not a formula. | condition | Breathing | 59 | live |
| Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) restraint owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Movement | 59 | live |
| Fibromyalgia restraint log: 'fibromyalgia' 211. Trust 1: a chronically dismissed patient group that is heavily targeted by supplement sellers, so careful restraint and no product. Traction 4 because the Tai Chi trial sits directly on our home ground. | condition | Pain | 59 | live |
| mRNA Vaccines: What the Evidence Shows owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | science | Frontier | 59 | live |
| Time in Nature: Green Space, Forest Bathing and What Holds Up log: no direct term. Included early because it is free, it is central to the section's philosophy, and the honest split between green-space cohorts and grounding claims is itself the lesson. | practice | Mind | 59 | live |
| Prostate Health: What Helps and What Is Oversold restraint log: 'prostate' 206, with 'impotence' 189 and 'incontinence' 71 nearby. Trust 1: prostate cancer screening decisions and a supplement market that trades on fear, so careful restraint and no product bridge despite money 3. | condition | Men's | 59 | live |
| Purpose and Meaning: One of the Best-Correlated Things in Health Research, and It Costs Nothing log: no term at any volume. Scored on the purpose-in-life cohort literature, which is large and consistent, and on connectivity into the mind pillar. Not a search-entry page and not scored as one. | practice | Mind | 59 | live |
| Therapeutic Plasma Exchange and the Young-Plasma Trend: Established Medicine and the Longevity Frontier owner directive 2026-08-02 (frontier practice batch); high public and creator interest in young-blood and longevity plasma (Topic Radar); established apheresis indications are clinically important; search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Frontier | 59 | live |
| Urolithin A: What It Does for Mitochondria and Muscle restraint owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | 59 | live | |
| Berberine: What It Does for Blood Sugar and Cholesterol restraint external: high consumer search interest (berberine, surging); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 58 | live | |
| Bioelectricity: What Is Established, What Is Frontier, and What Is Sold log: no direct term; adjacent volume in 'energy'/'qi' concept queries (qi 451). Traction is high because almost nobody covers this honestly, and the frontier axis is our differentiator. | science | Foundations | 58 | live |
| Cupping Therapy: What It Does, What the Evidence Shows, and How to Use It restraint log: 'cupping' 175, an unmatched term with no page. Evidence 2 is the honest read of the trial record despite the visibility, and traction 5 because saying that from inside the tradition carries weight that a debunking site cannot. | practice | Pain | 58 | live |
| Fermented Foods: What Feeding Your Microbiome With Food Actually Does log: no term above the 70-search floor. Traction 4: Chinese medicine has used fermented preparations for centuries (Shen Qu, Dan Dou Chi are already in our library), which gives us a bridge that food-science sites do not have. | practice | Metabolic | 58 | live |
| Ketamine and Esketamine for Depression restraint log: no term at meaningful volume. Evidence 4 and traction 4: esketamine is FDA-approved for treatment-resistant depression on phase 3 trials, and multiple meta-analyses support intravenous ketamine's rapid effect, so this is a real clinical treatment rather than an investigational compound. Trust 3 rather than higher, and restraint careful, because the benefit fades without repeated dosing and heavy or unsupervised use carries bladder toxicity and dependence risk. Money 0: clinic-administered prescription treatment with no product to recommend, so no dosing and no sourcing. | practice | Frontier | 58 | live |
| Lion's Mane: A Traditional Food-Medicine and the Nerve-Growth Research external: high and rising consumer search interest (lion's mane, lion's mane mushroom, and the broader nootropic-mushroom trend); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending. Commercial intent is strong (supplement affiliate), so money 4; evidence 2 and benefit 2 reflect small, short human trials at emerging/preliminary strength against a long traditional food-medicine record. | practice | 58 | live | |
| Medicinal Mushrooms: What Reishi, Cordyceps, Chaga and Turkey Tail Can and Cannot Do restraint external: high and rising consumer search interest in the functional-mushroom category (reishi, cordyceps, chaga, turkey tail, mushroom complex) driven by the nootropic and immune-supplement trend; internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending. Commercial intent is strong (supplement affiliate), so money 4. Evidence 2 and benefit 2 reflect a category that is strong for turkey tail as a chemotherapy adjunct but preliminary to emerging for the rest, with chaga at animal work; restraint careful because the strongest use sits in cancer care and there are immune-drug and anticoagulant interactions. | practice | 58 | live | |
| Psoriasis: what calms the plaques restraint log: 'psoriasis' 293, with 'vitiligo' 91 adjacent. Trust 1: biologics work and a wellness page can cause real harm through delay, so careful restraint, no product, and the modern route stated first. Traction 5 only because that framing is rare. | condition | Skin | 58 | live |
| Waist-to-Height Ratio restraint log: no direct term; 'weight loss' 308 and 'obesity' 159 are the intent behind it. Trust 2 fires the gate: body measurement needs care with readers who have disordered eating, so careful restraint and no product. | measure | Movement | 58 | live |
| Whey vs Whole-Food Protein log: no term for protein above the 70-search floor; it feeds from the existing protein-and-muscle topic. A live buying question with a boring answer, and money 4 is exactly why the answer has to be given that way. | compare | Metabolic | 58 | live |
| Cold Plunge vs Cold Shower restraint log: no internal volume; substantial external comparison intent. Trust 2 carries over from the cold-exposure topic, where cold-shock is a genuine cardiac and drowning risk, so careful restraint and no product bridge despite money 4. | compare | Heat and cold | 57 | live |
| Continuous Glucose Monitoring: A Powerful Tool in Diabetes, a Curiosity in Health restraint external: high consumer search interest (cgm, continuous glucose monitor); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | Metabolic | 57 | live |
| Fisetin and Quercetin: The Senolytic Supplements, and What Humans Actually Have restraint external: rising consumer search interest in fisetin and quercetin as senolytic and longevity supplements, driven by the mouse lifespan data and the dasatinib-plus-quercetin research; internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 57 | live | |
| Pacing: How Staying Within Your Energy Envelope Prevents Crashes in ME/CFS and Long COVID restraint log: low internal historical volume (our audience searched TCM terms). External demand is rising fast with long COVID, and there is a safety-critical content gap: pacing is the consensus frontline approach for ME/CFS and long COVID and we have no page. Greenfield, and the approach that competes with it (graded exercise) was dropped from UK national guidance, so accurate coverage matters. | practice | Foundations | 57 | live |
| Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF): Devices and Mats restraint owner directive 2026-08-02 (research batch); strong consumer and creator interest around recovery and wellness mats (Topic Radar); search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Pain | 57 | live |
| Probiotics: Which Strains Work, For What, and Who Should Take Care restraint external: high consumer search interest (probiotics); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 57 | live | |
| The Gut Microbiome restraint log: no term for 'microbiome' or 'probiotics' above the 70-search floor; 'diarrhea' 268 and 'ibs' 125 are the reader-facing entries. Traction 3: dedicated gut-health sites cover this heavily. Direct-to-consumer microbiome testing is why restraint is careful. | science | Metabolic | 57 | live |
| Slow Breathing vs the Wim Hof Method restraint log: no term at any volume; adjacent 'anxiety' 325 and 'stress' 102. Trust 2: hyperventilation-and-breath-hold protocols have caused blackouts and drownings, so careful restraint. Traction 5 because the comparison is almost never made honestly. | compare | Mind | 56 | live |
| Acid Reflux and GERD: what settles it restraint log: 'acid reflux' 104; 'gerd' and 'heartburn' do not appear above the capped list's 70-search floor, so this is a smaller gap than it feels like and demand is scored 2 rather than assumed. Trust 2: Barrett's red flags and PPI questions force careful restraint. | condition | Metabolic | 56 | live |
| Meditation and Mindfulness restraint log: no term for 'meditation' or 'yoga' above the 70-search floor; 'anxiety' 325 and 'depression' 454 are what send readers here. Trust 3 and careful restraint because meditation-related adverse effects are real, measured, and routinely omitted. | practice | Mind | 56 | live |
| Heat Without a Sauna restraint log: no internal volume for sauna terms. Traction 5: the hot-bath trial literature is real and nearly every page on heat is written by someone selling a cabin, so the cheap routes are structurally under-covered. | practice | Heat and cold | 56 | live |
| Tinnitus: What Helps, What Does Not, and the Signs That Need a Doctor restraint log: 'tinnitus' 416, the eleventh-highest unmatched condition term and one of our largest uncovered gaps, with 'ear' 157 alongside. Trust 1: a desperate audience that is heavily sold supplements, so money 0, no product, and evidence graded at 2 where it belongs. | condition | Senses | 56 | live |
| Yoga Nidra and NSDR: What Guided Deep Rest Does and How to Start log: no direct term above the search floor; adjacent 'anxiety' 325, 'stress' 102, 'insomnia' 758 route here. Momentum 4 because NSDR is a fast-rising popular term (Huberman) with a thin, honest evidence base we can hold both lenses on. Evidence 2 because the trials are small, short, low-quality and geographically concentrated, and the strongest RCT shows only small effects. | practice | Mind | 56 | live |
| Choline: The Nutrient for the Liver and the Developing Brain external: moderate consumer search interest (choline, choline supplement, choline pregnancy); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 55 | live | |
| Cleanses and Detoxes: What Your Liver Already Does, the Herbs That Help, and Which Products Do Nothing restraint owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Metabolic | 55 | live |
| Greens Powders (AG1, Green Vibrance): What Is In The Scoop restraint owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | 55 | live | |
| How to Read a Study log: no term at any volume. Companion to how-we-grade-evidence: that page explains our tiers, this one hands the reader the tools to check us. Connectivity 5, because every graded claim on the site can link to it. | guide | Foundations | 55 | live |
| Irish Sea Moss: What It Contains, the Iodine Catch, and How to Use It Well restraint owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | 55 | live | |
| Resveratrol: The Red-Wine Longevity Story, and What the Trials Show restraint external: durable consumer interest from the red-wine/anti-aging supplement market and the sirtuin longevity narrative; internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 55 | live | |
| Sulforaphane and Broccoli Sprouts: Strong Mechanism, Early Human Evidence external: moderate consumer search interest (sulforaphane, broccoli sprouts, glucoraphanin); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 55 | live | |
| Vitamin B12: Who Actually Needs It, and What It Fixes restraint external: high consumer search interest (vitamin b12, b12 deficiency); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 55 | live | |
| Vitamin K2 restraint external: moderate-to-high consumer search interest (vitamin k2, mk-7, vitamin d and k2); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 55 | live | |
| Volunteering and Helping Others: A Free Habit Linked to Better Mood, Sharper Aging, and a Longer Life log: no term at any volume. Included on benefit and on principle: the volunteering-and-mortality cohorts are large, it costs nothing, and money 0 is a standing signal that this queue is not commission-driven. | practice | Mind | 55 | live |
| High-Intensity Interval Training: What HIIT Does, and How to Do It Well log: no term at any volume. Enormous external volume, saturated by dedicated fitness sites, so traction is 2. It earns its place as the short route into the VO2max evidence, not as an entry page. | practice | Movement | 54 | live |
| Heart Rate Variability: Reading Your Recovery restraint log: no term at any volume. Traction 5: between-person HRV comparison is not interpretable and no page selling a chest strap will say so. It is the measurement companion to the existing breathwork topic. | measure | Movement | 54 | live |
| Resonance and Entrainment restraint log: no direct term; 'qi' 451 and 'yin yang' 328 are the concept-level curiosity this serves. Traction 5: the split between real baroreflex resonance near six breaths a minute and frequency-healing marketing is not written honestly anywhere we can find. | science | Foundations | 54 | live |
| Autophagy log: no term above the 70-search floor. Traction 5: the gap between the cell-biology evidence and the human-fasting evidence is enormous and almost nobody writes it down, so evidence is scored 2 on the human benefit question rather than on the mechanism. | biology | Foundations | 53 | live |
| BDNF and the Exercising Brain log: no term at any volume. It is the mechanism the movement pillar hands to the mind pillar, and serum BDNF is a weak proxy for brain BDNF, which is the correction the page exists to make. | biology | Foundations | 53 | live |
| GHK-Cu (Copper Peptide): What It Does for Skin, the Evidence, and Why the Injected Form Is Untested restraint log: copper peptide and GHK-Cu ride the peptide-skincare trend with rising external interest, though niche next to retinoids and vitamin C; internally it links from tretinoin, collagen, vitamin-c and the Skin & Hair goal. Evidence 2: strong cell and animal mechanism, but the human record is one small randomized trial that was null on objective measures, and much of the literature is authored by the commercial developer. Trust 3 and careful restraint because the injectable/systemic route is grey-market with unknown safety. | practice | Skin | 53 | live |
| Gratitude Practice log: no term at any volume; adjacent 'depression' 454. External interest is large and the trial record is weaker than the popular version. Traction 3: crowded space, and our honest read is the only lever we have in it. | practice | Mind | 53 | live |
| Iron: When It Helps, How to Take It, and Why to Test First restraint external: high consumer search interest (iron supplement, iron deficiency); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 53 | live | |
| Multivitamins: What They Do, What the Big Trials Found, and Who Benefits restraint external: high consumer search interest (multivitamin, very high); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 53 | live | |
| Zinc: What It Helps, the Right Dose, and the Copper Ceiling restraint external: high consumer search interest (zinc, zinc for colds); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 53 | live | |
| Turmeric and Curcumin restraint external: high consumer search interest (turmeric, curcumin); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 52 | live | |
| Methylene Blue: A Century-Old Medicine and Its Modern Wellness Trend owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Frontier | 52 | live |
| Selenium: A Trace Mineral With a Narrow Safe Range restraint external: moderate consumer search interest (selenium, selenium thyroid, brazil nuts selenium); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 52 | live | |
| Ashwagandha: What the Evidence Shows for Stress, Sleep, and Strength restraint external: high consumer search interest (ashwagandha); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 51 | live | |
| Collagen: What It Does for Skin, Joints, and Bone, and What It Does Not restraint external: high consumer search interest (collagen, collagen peptides); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 51 | live | |
| Ketogenic Eating: Proven for Childhood Epilepsy, Supervised in Type 2 Diabetes, Modest for Weight restraint log: no term for keto above the 70-search floor; 'diabetes' 514 and 'weight loss' 308 are the intents behind it, and 'epilepsy' 124 is the one indication with strong evidence. Trust 2 fires the gate: careful restraint, no product bridge. | practice | Metabolic | 51 | live |
| Resting Heart Rate: What It Reveals log: no direct term; 'palpitations' 75 is the nearest thing and it is a different question. Included so the measures set is complete, and scored modestly because the individual signal genuinely is modest. | measure | Movement | 51 | live |
| Shilajit: The Ayurvedic Mineral Tonic, and What the Research Shows restraint owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | 51 | live | |
| Spermidine: A Strong Lab Case and a Thin Human Record restraint external: rising consumer and press interest in spermidine as a longevity and autophagy supplement following the 2016 Nature Medicine mouse study and the 2018 dietary-mortality cohort; internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 51 | live | |
| Apigenin: The Chamomile Flavonoid Sold for Sleep, and What Is Actually Known external: high and rising consumer search interest in apigenin as a sleep supplement, driven by popular evening supplement stacks; adjacent internal terms 'insomnia' and 'anxiety' route here. Evidence 1 because no trial has tested isolated apigenin in people and the chamomile trials are small, mixed, and include clear nulls (insomnia severity, state anxiety). Momentum 4 because it is a fast-rising popular term with a thin, honest evidence base we can hold both lenses on. | practice | Sleep | 50 | live |
| The Carnivore Diet: What It Is, What People Report, and What Is Actually Known restraint Popular and rising through social media and low-carbohydrate communities, so momentum is high, but the direct evidence is a single self-selected survey, which holds evidence and benefit at 2. Trust 2 fires the careful restraint: no product bridge, honest concerns led with the reason people try it and stated at full weight. | practice | Metabolic | 50 | live |
| Heat and Cold: Contrast Therapy restraint log: no internal volume. Traction 4: the protocol is everywhere in recovery marketing and the head-to-head evidence against heat alone or cold alone barely exists, so saying where the evidence stops is the value. | practice | Heat and cold | 50 | live |
| Coenzyme Q10: What the Trials Show for Heart Failure, Migraine, and Statin Muscle Pain restraint external: high consumer search interest (coq10, ubiquinol); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 50 | live | |
| Free Weights or Machines log: no term at any volume. Saturated by dedicated fitness sites, hence traction 3. It exists so the resistance-training page can stay about physiology while the equipment question is answered one click away. | compare | Movement | 50 | live |
| Forest Bathing (Shinrin-Yoku) log: no term at any volume. Split out from the broader nature topic because conflating the shinrin-yoku trials with the green-space mortality cohorts is the standard error, and the two deserve separate grading. | practice | Mind | 49 | live |
| Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS): What the Evidence Supports restraint log: the pre-2020 search log carries some volume for 'chronic fatigue' but ME/CFS is distinct from the higher-volume 'fatigue' term (119), so demand is scored low rather than borrowed from the fatigue page. It earns its place on trust 1, since graded exercise can harm this group and a marketplace of unproven treatments targets it, and on direction 4, since the guideline shift is recent and research is active. Connectivity 4: it links fatigue, long COVID, sleep and orthostatic intolerance. | condition | Foundations | 48 | live |
| L-Theanine: The Calm-Alert Amino Acid in Tea, and What It Does external: high consumer search interest (l-theanine); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 48 | live | |
| Glucosamine and Chondroitin: What the Best Trials Show for Joint Pain restraint external: high consumer search interest (glucosamine, chondroitin, joint supplement); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 47 | live | |
| Mobility and Stretching: What It Reliably Does, and How to Build Usable Range log: no term at any volume. Included because the honest answer differs sharply from the marketed one. Evidence 2 reflects the real trial record for the claims people believe, not the popularity of the practice. | practice | Movement | 47 | live |
| Dynamic Neural Retraining System (DNRS): What the Program Is and What the Evidence Shows restraint log: modest but real search interest in brain retraining for chronic illness, rising with long COVID. Evidence and benefit are low because no randomized trial has tested DNRS; the closest controlled data are from related programs. Money 1: careful topic, no product push. | practice | Mind | 46 | live |
| Vitamin C: What It Actually Does, Colds, and the Right Dose restraint external: high consumer search interest (vitamin c, vitamin c for colds); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 46 | live | |
| Micronutrient Inadequacy and the Triage Theory restraint log: no direct search term. External interest comes from the longevity and supplement world, where the triage theory is cited as a reason to supplement broadly, which is why restraint is careful: the population-shortfall data are solid but the theory is unproven in humans and the multivitamin trials are largely null. | science | Foundations | 45 | live |
| Rhodiola: What It Does for Fatigue and Stress restraint external: high consumer search interest (rhodiola, rhodiola rosea); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 45 | live | |
| BPC-157: What the Peptide Is and What the Evidence Actually Shows Strong and rising biohacking, athlete, and creator interest in BPC-157 for injury and tendon recovery (Topic Radar); internal search volume not measured in the log. Trust 1 fires the hard gate: reference only, no product, no dosing, and it can never become a protocol while the evidence is preclinical and the product is an unregulated research chemical. | practice | 43 | live | |
| Psilocybin: What the Trials Show for Depression and End-of-Life Distress log: no term at meaningful volume. Momentum 5: phase 2b and phase 3 programmes in depression are reading out. Trust 0 forces reference only: psychiatric risk (mania, psychosis), dangerous lithium and serotonergic interactions, and criminal exposure, so no dosing, no sourcing, no product. | practice | Frontier | 43 | live |
| Growth Hormone Secretagogues: What Ibutamoren and the GH Peptides Do owner directive 2026-08-02 (frontier practice batch); strong and rising biohacking and creator interest in GH peptides (Topic Radar), internal search volume not measured in the log. Trust 1 fires the hard gate: reference only, no product, and it can never become a protocol. | practice | Frontier | 42 | live |
| MDMA-Assisted Therapy for PTSD log: no term at any volume. Two phase 3 PTSD trials read out with moderate-to-large effect, so momentum 4. Trust 1 forces reference only: Schedule I status, criminal exposure, acute cardiovascular and serotonergic risk, so no dosing, no sourcing, no product. Deep companion to the psychedelics overview. | practice | Frontier | 42 | live |
| Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy: What It Treats, and Where the Wellness Claims Exceed the Evidence log: no term at any volume. External interest is large and rising while the approved-indication list stays short. Trust 1 fires the gate: reference only, no dosing, no clinic sourcing, no product. | practice | Frontier | 40 | live |
| Peptides: The Few Approved Drugs and the Many Unregulated Ones log: no internal volume; large and rising external interest. Trust 1 and evidence 1 both fire the hard gates: reference only, no product, and it can never become a protocol. | practice | Frontier | 40 | live |
| Cancer and Metabolism log: 'cancer' 284, a real internal term with real people behind it, which is exactly why it needs writing carefully rather than not at all. Trust 0 and evidence 1: reference only, no protocol, no product, and the page's first job is to stop anyone delaying treatment. | science | Frontier | 39 | live |
| Long COVID restraint log: no term for covid at any volume, which is expected: the search log is overwhelmingly pre-2020. Demand is scored 0 rather than guessed from external data. It earns its place on direction 5, since trial readouts are still arriving, and on trust 1, since graded exercise can harm this group. | condition | Breathing | 39 | live |
| Psychedelics in Mental Health log: no term at any volume. Direction 5: multiple phase 3 programmes are reading out. Trust 0 forces reference only: psychiatric risk, drug interactions and criminal exposure, so no dosing, no sourcing, no product. | practice | Frontier | 39 | live |
| Ayahuasca: What the Depression Research Shows, and Why It Carries Serious Risk log: no internal search volume. Momentum 4: ceremonial use is spreading internationally and psychedelic depression research is active. Trust 1 forces reference only: the core mechanism is a hazardous MAO-inhibitor interaction with common antidepressants, plus psychiatric risk and criminal exposure, so no dosing, no sourcing, no product. | practice | Frontier | 38 | live |
| Grounding and Earthing: What the Evidence Actually Shows restraint log: no meaningful internal term volume, but strong ambient wellness interest in grounding and earthing mats. Warranted mainly to grade a heavily marketed low-evidence claim soberly and to route readers to the free, well-supported barefoot-outdoors version alongside nature, walking and light. | practice | Mind | 38 | live |
| How We Grade Evidence log: none. Linked from every graded claim on the site; its job is to make the tiers legible, not to rank. | guide | Foundations | 38 | live |
| Coffee Enemas: What They Are, the Evidence, and the Risks owner directive 2026-07-31 (research batch); strong public and creator interest (Topic Radar), search volume not yet measured in the log. | practice | Metabolic | 36 | live |
| Ergothioneine: The Mushroom Antioxidant and the Longevity-Vitamin Question restraint external: growing longevity-community search interest (ergothioneine, longevity vitamin, mushrooms antioxidant); internal 1.07M-log cross-reference pending | practice | 36 | live | |
| TB-500: A Synthetic Thymosin Beta-4 Fragment Sold for Injury Recovery log: no internal search volume; rising external interest from the peptide and injury-recovery scene. Evidence 1 and trust 1 both fire the hard gates: reference only, no dose, no product, and it can never become a protocol. Benefit for the marketed use rests on animal and cell data with no completed human trial. | practice | 36 | live | |
| Prolotherapy and Regenerative Injections log: no term at any volume; 'knee pain' 84 and 'arthritis' 300 are the conditions it is sold for. Trust 1 forces reference only: an injected, practitioner-administered procedure with real risk and variable regulation. | practice | Frontier | 35 | live |
| Why We Built This log: none. This is a trust and provenance page, measured by assisted conversion and time-on-section, not by entry search. | guide | Foundations | 34 | live |
| Whole-Body Cryotherapy log: no term at any volume. Trust 1 forces reference only: nitrogen asphyxiation and frostbite are documented, and the FDA has issued a consumer warning. Traction 4 because the cold-water conflation is almost universal. | practice | Frontier | 31 | live |
| Ibogaine for Addiction: The Signal, the Cardiac Risk, and the Law log: no term at any volume. Momentum 4: a 2024 Stanford Nature Medicine study renewed research interest. Trust 0 forces reference only: documented fatal cardiac arrhythmia, Schedule I status, and use in unregulated overseas clinics, so no dosing, no sourcing, no product. | practice | Frontier | 28 | live |
| IV Vitamin Drips and NAD+ Therapy: What the Evidence Shows log: no term at any volume. Both gates fire: evidence 1 blocks protocol status, trust 1 forces reference only. Included because it is one of the fastest-growing categories in the space and the honest account is short. | practice | Frontier | 28 | live |
| Ozone Therapy: What the Evidence Shows log: no term at any volume. Both gates fire: evidence 1 means it can never become a protocol, trust 0 means reference only and no product. It is in the register so the map is honest about what we will not recommend. | practice | Frontier | 23 | live |
The demand figures come from this site's own search records, roughly 1.07 million queries, which is why the ranking reflects what readers here actually look for rather than what is popular in general.
