Health journalism
built on evidence.
Helthro is a public health media platform by Health Boat Foundation (India). We exist to make accurate, accessible health information available to everyone — not just those who can afford a doctor's appointment.
"Informed people make better health decisions.— Health Boat Foundation, India
That's the only reason we exist."
What we stand for
Editorial Independence
Our newsroom operates independently of advertisers and sponsors. Every editorial decision is guided by public interest, not commercial pressure.
Evidence-Based Reporting
We cite peer-reviewed research from WHO, ICMR, The Lancet, and NEJM. Sensitive health claims are reviewed by qualified medical professionals.
Public Access
Health information should not be paywalled. All core content on Helthro is freely accessible — no subscriptions, no logins, no barriers.
Continuous Accuracy
Published articles are updated as new research emerges. We correct errors transparently and maintain an auditable editorial trail.
