— 01 · Sourcing
All primary claims in Elaronev entries are traced to peer-reviewed research where it exists. Secondary sources — health agencies, health institutions, and established evidence-based publications — are used to supplement, contextualise, or translate technical findings into accessible language.
We do not regard popular wellness media, social influencers, or anecdotal accounts as primary sources. Personal experience, where cited, is clearly labelled as such and is never used to carry factual claims.
Peer-Reviewed Journals
PubMed, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, and open-access repositories with DOI-traceable citations.
Health Authorities
WHO, Indonesian Ministry of Health (Kemenkes), sports science bodies, and national nutrition guidelines.
Academic Books & Monographs
Published textbooks in exercise physiology, sports nutrition, sleep science, and dermatology — referenced by edition and chapter.

— 03 · Writing Standards
Every entry follows a consistent structure: a brief rationale for the topic, a summary of the primary evidence, practical application notes, and a clearly worded limitation or caveat. No entry prescribes specific protocols for individuals.
Language is kept at a reading level accessible to a general adult audience. Technical terms are either avoided or defined on first use. Hyperbole, fear-based framing, and unqualified superlatives are house style violations.
All entries include a wellness disclaimer note: Elaronev content is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional wellness advice. Readers with specific health concerns are directed to qualified practitioners.

Corrections are acknowledged within one working day of receipt. Where an amendment is warranted, it is published with a visible, dated correction note at the top of the affected entry. The original incorrect text is struck through and the replacement is clearly marked.
No silent edits are made. Changes made for style, typography, or layout that do not alter the meaning of a sentence do not require a correction notice. Changes that affect the accuracy or interpretation of any claim always do.
