Hattty writes about women's health supplements and bladder health for getfemicor.com.
Hattty is a biochemist with an interest in women's health and dietary supplements. He focuses on reviewing supplement formulas, ingredients and the available scientific evidence to help readers make more informed decisions.
Supplement marketing often blurs the line between what an ingredient might do and what it has been shown to do. Hattty's work is about drawing that line clearly — explaining what is in a product, how each ingredient is thought to work, how strong the research really is and what safety considerations readers should discuss with their doctor.
Hattty has a background in biochemistry and experience researching dietary supplements and their ingredients. His reviews focus on four areas:
What each ingredient is, which form is used and whether key compounds — such as cranberry PACs or probiotic CFU counts — are disclosed.
Whether the ingredients make sense together, whether doses are in line with published research and whether proprietary blends hide important details.
Known side effects, drug interactions, duration limits and groups who should avoid an ingredient, such as pregnant or breastfeeding women.
Systematic reviews and clinical trials first, followed by smaller human studies, then laboratory research and traditional use — clearly labeled as such.
