Maya Ellison

Health Content Editor, CareDoctor

Maya Ellison is the health content editor at caredoctor. She researches and edits the site's supplement references and is accountable for what caredoctor publishes. Maya is not a doctor or registered dietitian; the site's role is to summarise, in plain language, what public health authorities such as the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements and the National Academies report, and to cite every source so readers can verify it. For personal medical questions, please consult a qualified professional.

What the role involves

Maya compiles each supplement reference from the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements and the Dietary Reference Intakes, grades the evidence conservatively, checks every figure against the primary source, and is accountable for what publishes. Reference pages are drafted with AI assistance and edited by a human before they go live.
