The Masthead
Who writes Get Skinny
This is a newsroom, not a clinic. The people below are editors and writers who cover this field full time. They do not treat patients and they do not hold medical credentials, so nothing here is a substitute for a consultation with a clinician who can examine you.
How we work
Every story is signed
Each piece carries the name of the writer who reported it and links to everything else they have written here.
Reviewed, and dated
Stories show when they were last reviewed, so you can judge for yourself how current the guidance is.
Sources you can open
Where the published literature settles a question, we link to it directly so you can read the paper rather than take our word for it.
