At Cordeo, we aim to deliver health-related content that is educational, accessible, and rooted in reliable medical knowledge. While we prioritize clinical accuracy and evidence-based information, the content on www.cordeohealth.com is intended for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

This Medical Content Review Policy describes the editorial standards and review processes we follow to ensure the credibility, clarity, and safety of the health-related material we publish. All medical content is either reviewed or created by qualified professionals with relevant academic or clinical backgrounds, and efforts are made to cite reputable sources, including peer-reviewed journals and public health authorities.

However, we do not guarantee the completeness, timeliness, or absolute accuracy of the content and strongly recommend consulting a licensed medical professional for any personal health concerns or conditions.
