About HealthLit

Think better about health.

What HealthLit is

HealthLit is a curated health audio app built around one idea: most health information is either too simple or too hard to trust. We try to change that.

We don't optimize for alarm or engagement. We publish evidence-aware content that helps you think more clearly — whether you're evaluating a health book, understanding a biomarker, or following a research debate.

What we publish

  • Daily Insights — Personalized briefings from peer-reviewed research, delivered every morning.
  • Reviews — Evidence-scored reviews of popular health books, organized by credibility.
  • Concepts — Short audio series on health logic, mythbusters, and explainers.
  • Stories — Deep narrative audio about the history and science of medicine.

How we approach evidence

We cite sources. We distinguish between association and causation. We note where the evidence is strong, where it's mixed, and where there simply isn't enough to say.

When we review health books, we don't just evaluate the writing — we score the evidence base, how balanced the claims are, and whether the actionable advice is actually supported. Our scores reflect that.
