In short

Every EaseMove article relies on verifiable primary sources (Health Canada, published studies, Canadian guidelines), shows its list of sources and its update date, and contains no dosages, no links to sellers and no before-and-after photos.

The sources we use

We prioritize, in this order:

  1. Canadian authorities: Health Canada advisories, recalls and news releases, and the Drug Product Database.
  2. Canadian guidelines: the Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines (CSEP), Canada’s food guide, Obesity Canada’s clinical practice guideline.
  3. Published studies: randomized clinical trials, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, read on PubMed or in the original journals.
  4. Pharmaceutical company releases, only for facts (announced results, product status), always identified as such.
  5. Recognized investigative journalism (for example CBC News), for Canadian context.

We do not use seller websites, testimonials or influencer posts as sources.

How we check

  • Every number is taken from the source, without misleading rounding, and the source is cited in the article.
  • We clearly distinguish animal studies, lab studies and human studies.
  • We state the limits of studies: size, duration, lack of a control group.
  • Every external link is tested before publication and during updates.

What we do not publish

Our rules

  • No dosages, protocols, reconstitution or injection instructions
  • No links to sellers of peptides, medications or supplements, and no ads or affiliate links at this time
  • No before-and-after photos and no judgment of bodies
  • No personalized medical advice

AI-generated images

The illustration photos on this site are generated by artificial intelligence. They do not depict real patients, show no treatment results and include no syringes, vials or products for sale. Each image has descriptive alt text in the language of the page.

Updates and corrections

Articles are revised when an important new study, a new Health Canada advisory or a new drug authorization changes what we write. The last update date appears at the top of every article. If you spot an error, write to us (see Contact): we check and correct it quickly.
