Health Articles - Nutrition & Wellness
Virtually any journalist can write a health or medical article. Why hire a dietitian?
The average writer faces a steep learning curve before they even begin to write a health-related piece. The health and wellness arena requires the ability to quickly decipher which information is medically accurate and scientifically sound. My expertise enables me to approach nutrition or medical topics already knowing the science and understanding the research and consumer concerns behind the issue. In addition, as a Registered Dietitian, my title, and my experience lend credibility to my health writing.
Magazine Writing
Prior to ever even querying a magazine, I had contributed over 15 print articles to well-known consumer magazines. In the very competitive arena of health publications, editors actually sought my writing expertise after reading my writing samples. They have continued working with me because I exceed expectations with every article I write. In writing magazine articles I:
- Submit clean content well ahead of deadline,
- Provide creative hed and dek ideas,
- Include expert sources and document all reference details, and
- Offer ideas for clever side-bars, graphs and tables.
Because I myself am an avid reader of consumer health magazines, I fully understand what works. I really enjoy writing consumer health articles and that enthusiasm is always evident in my articles.
Online Health Articles
I have written over 80 online health articles, along with health blog posts and health e-newsletters. What sets me apart from many other health writers is my ability to write and design specifically for the web. I provide health articles that are easily integrated into your web content or e-mail campaigns. They can be:
- Formatted in HTML including your images, or images sourced according to your specifications,
- Search engine optimized (SEO) for the most popular keywords,
- Uploaded directly to your server or added via your content management system, or
- Posted directly on your Blog.
