Zenmaster wellness review board
Zenmaster Wellness is an award-winning resource that aims to help you better your mental and physical health. Through easily consumable written and video content, we highlight innovative products and strategies to over 840,000 readers each year.
The Zenmaster Wellness Review Board is a growing team of board-certified physicians, dietitians, NCSF-certified personal trainers, nutrition specialists, and health and wellness leaders who ensure that our content is accurate and up-to-date. They align with our mission to inspire healthier living through science-backed approaches to both physical and mental health.
Every piece of content, either written or video, that contains medical information goes through our Review Board for verification and accuracy. The Review Board then carefully combs over this information and checks content to ensure everything is accurate, up-to-date, and unbiased. He or she also cross-checks facts against scientific, peer-reviewed studies and papers – often even information that is widely accepted as true.
If a member of the Review Board spots something that requires updating, he or she shares this feedback with the Zenmaster Wellness editorial team. Changes are made same-day to ensure that information is up-to-date and accurate.
