Open Clinical Concepts & Documentation (OCC-Doc) is an independent informational project dedicated to documenting, summarizing, and explaining health-related research, clinical terminology, and emerging wellness topics.
What We Are
We are a documentation resource. Our work involves synthesizing published research, defining clinical terminology, and explaining complex health concepts in accessible language. We write for educated consumers, wellness professionals, researchers, and policy-curious readers who want evidence-based information without promotional bias.
What We Are Not
Important Distinctions
- We are not medical providers. We do not diagnose, treat, or provide personalized health recommendations.
- We do not sell products. We have no commercial relationships with supplement manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies, or wellness brands.
- We are not an affiliate site. We do not earn commissions from product recommendations because we do not make product recommendations.
- We do not provide medical advice. All content is for informational purposes only.
Our Editorial Approach
All documentation on OCC-Doc references peer-reviewed literature, established medical resources, and authoritative clinical sources. We aim for:
- Neutrality: We present what research documents without advocating for specific treatments or outcomes.
- Evidence-based sourcing: We cite published studies, systematic reviews, and recognized clinical references.
- Transparency: We acknowledge limitations, gaps in research, and areas of scientific uncertainty.
- Accessibility: We translate clinical language into plain English while maintaining accuracy.
Why This Project Exists
Health information online is often promotional, sensationalized, or medically inaccurate. We believe there is value in a resource that simply documents what research says—without selling anything, without making promises, and without pretending certainty where none exists.
Our goal is to serve as a reference point for people who want to understand clinical concepts and research findings, presented in an accessible but rigorous format.
