At OneStopHealthGuide.com we are committed to helping you live a healthy life by supporting your ability to adapt to life’s challenges. Whether you are developing, retaining or regaining a healthy lifestyle we provide you with information, tips and useful links. And we assign our own independent ranking of the information on each topic:
A five apple rank is something we think is trustworthy, useful and worthy of your consideration and further investigation. As the number of apples declines, we will give you reasons why we think the item might have some problems. Of course, there are also some “rotten apples” we want to warn you about. After all, they can lead directly to poor health or indirectly cause it by keeping you from pursuing a more potentially fruitful path.
Importantly, we are not selling anything on this site. Any advertising you see here comes from other businesses on the Internet. We will also do our best to prevent advertisers who we do not view as legitimate from staying here for long. If you have ideas or wish to offer feedback in the way of constructive comments, we welcome them.
