Patient Questions

Real questions from health communities, answered with cited research from PubMed and Vellito's article corpus. Plain language, no medical advice. How this works.

Can mind-body exercise reduce depressive symptoms in cancer patients?

How this works

We pull real patient questions from public Reddit health communities (r/AskDocs, r/diabetes, r/menopause, etc.). Each question is rewritten into a generic medical question (no personal details), then answered by an AI using only cited sources from Vellito's article database and PubMed. A second AI independently scores each answer for accuracy and citation fidelity before publication. Answers below the safety threshold or touching emergency, dosing, or pediatric topics are queued for human review and never auto-published.

This is not medical advice. Always speak with your own doctor before making decisions about your health.
