Human Editorial Responsibility
AI Is Not a Source
AI-generated output is not treated as evidence. It cannot replace scientific papers, systematic reviews, government or regulatory sources, official product labels, manufacturer documentation, certification records, testing reports, direct expert statements, or other real-world sources capable of supporting a claim.
What AI Must Not Fabricate
- scientific studies or citations;
- researchers, experts, or credentials;
- quotations;
- product labels, ingredients, nutrition values, or supplement dosages;
- testing results or certifications;
- recalls, safety notices, or company statements;
- events or documentary evidence.
AI-Generated Images
AI-generated visuals should not be presented as documentary proof of an event that did not occur, a real product test, a real laboratory result, an authentic product label, contamination, a recall, a medical finding, or another factual situation that has not been independently established.
When documentary accuracy matters, authentic images, screenshots, official labels, records, charts, or documents are preferred.
Real Products and Brands
Extra care is required when AI imagery depicts a real product, package, brand, certification mark, label, or testing scenario. Generated packaging details must not be presented as a faithful reproduction of current real-world product information unless independently verified.
Health Content and Rankings
AI does not provide personalized diagnosis, treatment, medication decisions, supplement treatment plans, or emergency medical guidance through Shake Nutrition. It also does not independently determine product scores, reviews, or ranking positions.
Paid visibility does not determine editorial ranking position.
Corrections and Future Changes
If a generated visual creates a materially misleading factual impression, Shake Nutrition may replace, remove, or clarify it. If the site materially changes how AI is used, this policy should be updated before the new use is presented as part of the editorial process.
