Editorial Standards: How We Write About Protoflow
Our editorial standards are simple: the label comes first, sales claims appear only in quotes and are answered with evidence, every health fact has a named source, and we never present Protoflow as a treatment. We publish no ratings or reviewer names that we cannot verify.

Core rules01
What rules do we follow when we write about Protoflow?
We follow seven rules, and each page is checked against them before publishing.
- The label wins. If the label, the sales page and a brief disagree, we use the label and list the conflict.
- Sales claims appear only in quotes. We answer each one with evidence.
- Every health fact has a named source, and we say when a source was not read in full.
- We never call Protoflow a treatment for an enlarged prostate or any other condition.
- We never tell readers to stop or change a medicine.
- We publish no ratings, counts or reviewer names that we cannot verify.
- We use no pressure tactics: no countdowns, stock warnings or struck-through prices.
These rules come from our reading of the FTC's guidance on health claims, which says that claims should rest on competent and reliable scientific evidence and that a disclaimer does not fix a misleading claim (FTC, Health Products Compliance Guidance).
Sources02
Which sources do we use for health facts?
We use government health agencies, academic cancer centers and peer-reviewed research first, and we mark any source we saw only in search results.
| Source type | Examples | Use |
|---|---|---|
| NIH institutes and centers | NCCIH, NIDDK, NCI, ODS, MedlinePlus | Ingredient facts, conditions, limits |
| Regulators | FDA, FTC | Supplement rules, advertising rules |
| Cancer centers | Memorial Sloan Kettering | Herb monographs |
| Trials and reviews | JAMA, Cochrane | Saw palmetto results |
| Seller materials | Sales page, brand pack | Prices, claims to quote, label text |
Our reference list gives the title, the publisher, the year and a one-line summary of the point we rely on. A few entries are marked "search-verified". That means we saw the page or abstract in a search result and did not read it in full, and we rely on it only for what the visible text says.
Language03
What words do we avoid, and why?
We avoid words that promise a result or imply agency approval, because they are either false or unsupported for this product.
We also avoid urgency. A page that says "only three left" or counts down to a price change pushes you to decide before you have read. The FTC lists hidden terms and pressure as features of problem offers (FTC, Free trials and tribulations). We prefer plain verbs: the label says, the study found, the sales page claims. We use "may" when a source says may, and we do not turn "may" into "does".
When we describe a symptom, we do not diagnose. A weak stream or night-time trips can have many causes, and we say so, then point to a doctor. That habit costs us some clicks, and we think it is the right trade.
Numbers04
How do we handle numbers, prices and dates?
Every number on a page traces back to the label, the sales page on a stated date or a named source.
Amounts such as 75 mg of niacin or 84.5 mg of saw palmetto come from the label. Prices of $79, $59 and $49 a bottle come from the sales page as read on October 19, 2026, and we say so. Percentages we calculate, such as a line's share of 1,531 mg, are rounded and labelled as ours. We do not round in a direction that helps the product. When a number comes from a trial, we give the dose, the group size where we have it and the source.
We also avoid numbers that cannot be checked. The sales page may state counts of customers or ratings. We do not repeat them, because we cannot confirm them. Dates matter too. If a source is old, we say so, and we prefer recent agency pages over old blog posts.
Claims05
How do we handle sales claims?
We quote them exactly, label them as the seller's words and put the evidence next to them.
When the sales page says a product “supports the normal functions of the bladder, prostate and reproductive system”, we print those words in quotes, say that no study backs them, and give what the research found. We do the same for the vegan, filler-free and gluten-free claims, which the label does not support. We do not repeat claims in our own voice, even softened, because a reader skimming a page may take a repeated claim for a finding.
We apply the same rule to testimonials. They are one person's account, and the FTC says they do not support health claims on their own (FTC, Health Products Compliance Guidance). Testimonials about sleeping through the night are sales claims here.
Reviews06
How do we handle reviews and the medical reviewer?
We publish a review only after matching it to an order and getting consent, and we name a medical reviewer only after a review is on file.
The FTC's 2024 rule bans fake and AI-generated reviews and the buying of reviews conditioned on sentiment (FTC, Final rule banning fake reviews). We follow its spirit even where it does not strictly apply. Our reviews page explains how the empty cards will be filled. The about page shows the reviewer slot, which stays empty until we have a confirmed clinician.
Corrections07
How do we correct mistakes and update pages?
We correct errors as soon as we confirm them, show the update date on the page and keep the old claim out of the text.
If you spot an error, email [email protected] with the page, the passage and the source that shows the problem. We check it against the label and the source. If you are right, we fix the page and update the date. We also review pages when new evidence appears, such as a new trial or an agency notice, and we recheck prices on the sales page before each update.
Our review date for this standards page is October 19, 2026.
Limits08
What are the limits of our work?
We cannot test the capsules, we have not seen a certificate of analysis, and we cannot see anyone's results.
What we can do is read closely and report what we find. We make mistakes, we rely on the label and on what the seller supplied, and we cannot know what is in a given bottle. That is why we send readers to their doctor, tell them to keep taking prescribed medicine and give the order desk's number for anything that needs the seller.
FAQ09
Editorial standards: questions answered
What sources do you trust most?
We lean on NIH institutes, FDA, FTC, Memorial Sloan Kettering and peer-reviewed trials, and we mark any source seen only in search results.
Do you ever repeat sales claims as fact?
No. We quote them, label them as the seller's words and answer them with evidence.
Why do you list conflicts between the label and the sales page?
Readers deserve to know when a claim does not match the label. The label wins, and the conflict is listed.
How often do you update pages?
We update when new evidence or prices change and show the date on each page. We recheck prices before each update.
Do you accept corrections from readers?
Yes. Email the website desk with the page and a source, and we check and correct it.
Do your pages replace medical advice?
No. They are general information. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about your own case.
