Our editorial approach
We organize reporting and guidance with plain language and source-first citations. Our editorial process emphasizes transparency: each factual claim is traceable to registries, peer-reviewed literature, official guidance, or primary legal texts where available. For example, when referring to regulatory frameworks we consult primary sources such as federal and state statutes and established scientific repositories like the National Library of Medicine; this keeps our summaries anchored to verifiable documents rather than hearsay.
We aim to be useful for people researching ibogaine without providing treatment recommendations. For readers wanting a broader regulatory primer, we sometimes link to overviews like the U.S. Code or authoritative summaries on medical topics hosted by trusted institutions.
How we vet sources
- Primary-first: preference for registries, original studies, and official government pages when available.
- Transparency: we cite methods and limitations for summaries so readers can assess confidence.
- Independent review: editorial checks against official sources and literature reviews.
- Audience-first: content organized for people researching ibogaine, not clinicians or vendors.
