Every product entry is built from grounded research, structured into the Don't Eat Framework, and reviewed before it's published. Nothing on this site is generated from memory — every claim points to a live, verifiable URL.
Each entry begins as live web research restricted to a whitelist of authoritative sources — regulators, public-health bodies, and a small set of established Indian and international publications. The grounded findings are then structured against our six-axis Don't Eat Framework before anything is written to the index.
Every assertion in a product entry — a number, a date, a regulatory action, a marketing claim — is tied to a numbered reference with publisher, title, and where possible a supporting quote. Reference markers in the prose stay consistent with the citation list at the bottom of the page, so you can always trace a claim back to its source.
If a citation ever looks broken or off-topic, the Submit a correction flow is the fastest fix.
