Every product review on this site follows the same rules. We buy or clearly disclose how we obtained the product. We use it in a real kitchen for at least two weeks — longer for supplements and appliances — and we photograph what we actually used: the package, the contents, the mess. We compare it against at least one alternative you could buy instead. We tell you the price we paid and when.

A review here ends with a verdict about who the product is for, and who should skip it. If a brand sends us something for free, the review says so in the first screen. Brands do not see reviews before publication, and there is no way to pay for a better score. Reviews are re-tested and updated when a product changes; the update date is on the article.

In 2026 we consolidated more than one hundred older review posts that did not meet these standards into a small number of fully re-tested reviews. If you find a review that does not show real photographs and a purchase record, it has not been re-tested yet — tell us: myhealthyfoodlife.com@gmail.com.
