Write for Us: Health, Fitness and Wellness Guest Posts

Fantisfy publishes evidence-based health writing for a US audience, and we accept a small number of guest contributions each month. If you arrived here searching for health write for us, health guest post, or health blogs accepting guest posts, this page is what you need. Read it fully before pitching, because most submissions are declined for reasons listed below.

What we want is writing that would genuinely help someone who typed a health question into Google at 11pm and got twenty pages of hedged, sourceless filler. If you can do that, we are interested.

Health Write for Us: Topics We Accept

Pitches must fall inside one of these areas. Anything outside them is declined without review, however good the writing is.

• Health and wellness at a practical level: conditions, symptoms, treatments, and the questions people actually ask about them
• Fitness and exercise: training, programming, recovery, and the evidence behind popular claims
• Weight loss: what works, what does not, and why so much advice in this space is wrong
• Nutrition and diet: food claims, eating patterns, and the research behind them
• Mental health: depression, anxiety, burnout, stigma, and access to care
• Sleep health: sleep stages, disorders, trackers, and habits
• Dental care: aligners, retainers, whitening, procedures, and cost
• Skin health: conditions, treatments, and separating dermatology from marketing
• Career wellness: work stress, burnout, and the health cost of how people earn a living

Browse the blog before pitching. If we have covered your angle already, pitch something better or pitch something else.

What Makes a Fantisfy Article Different

This is the section most contributors skip, and most rejections come from it. Our published articles share a specific shape, set out in full on our editorial guidelines page. In summary:

• Every factual claim is traceable. Primary research, government health bodies, or major clinical organizations. Not another blog, not a supplement company, not an AI summary.
• We say when the evidence is weak. If a study is small, industry funded, or contradicted elsewhere, the article says so. Confident writing about uncertain evidence is the thing we most want to avoid.
• No miracle claims. Nothing cures anything overnight. Nothing melts fat. If your pitch depends on a dramatic promise, it is not for us.
• Written for a US reader. Dollars, pounds, Fahrenheit, US insurance and healthcare context, US spelling.
• Structured to be scanned. A short answer near the top, clear subheadings, tables for comparisons, and a closing verdict that actually takes a position.
• Plain language. Explain the mechanism, do not hide behind jargon, and do not pad. A tight 1,200 words beats a bloated 2,500.

Health Guest Post Guidelines

• Length: 1,200 to 2,500 words. Long enough to be complete, short enough to have been edited.
• Originality: Unpublished anywhere else, including your own site, LinkedIn, and Medium. We check.
• Sources: At least four, cited with links, weighted toward primary research and bodies like NIH, CDC, and the major clinical societies.
• Structure: Follow the shape in our editorial guidelines. This is where most rejected pieces go wrong.
• Format: Google Doc link with comment access, or plain text in the email body. No attachments.
• Author details: Real name, one or two sentence bio, and any relevant credentials. If you hold a clinical qualification, say so and we will note it on the byline.
• Images: Optional. If you supply any, you must own them or hold a license that permits commercial use.
• Editing: We edit for accuracy, structure, and house style. Substantive changes go back to you before publication.

Links and Attribution

Published contributors get a byline and a short bio, which may carry one link to your own site. Additional links inside the body are considered where they are genuinely relevant to the reader. How each link is treated is an editorial decision made after we have read the piece, and it depends on the quality of the article and how closely your site relates to the topic.

Links to your sources are unlimited and actively encouraged. We would rather see six citations than none, and articles without them do not get published.

What We Do Not Accept

• Anything AI-generated and unedited. We can tell, and it is an automatic no.
• Product reviews, brand features, or anything that reads like a press release
• Casino, CBD, crypto, adult, or pharmacy affiliate content
• Medical advice presented as instruction rather than information
• Content promising specific health outcomes, cures, or guaranteed results
• Spun, translated, or lightly reworded versions of existing articles
• Topics already well covered on Fantisfy, unless you are adding something real

How to Submit a Guest Post

Pitch first. Do not send a finished article. Unsolicited full drafts are deleted unread, because most of them were never written for this site.

Email fantisfy@gmail.com with Guest post pitch in the subject line, and include:

1. Your proposed headline, and the specific question the article answers
2. Three to five bullet points covering what the article will actually say, not what it will be “about”
3. Two or three sources you intend to build it on
4. One link to something you have written before
5. Who you are and why you are the person to write it

A pitch that takes ten minutes to write gets read. A template sent to fifty sites does not. For anything other than a guest post, use our contact page.

What Happens After You Pitch

We reply to pitches we want within about a week. If you have not heard back in two weeks, it was a no, and you are free to take the idea elsewhere. We do not send individual rejection notes, because the volume makes that impossible, and we would rather spend that time editing the pieces we accepted.

If we say yes, you will get a deadline, a word count, and any specific angles we want covered. Published pieces carry your name and bio permanently. We do not remove author credit, and we do not resell your work.

Who Should Write for Us

Clinicians, dietitians, therapists, trainers, dentists, and researchers who can write for a general reader. Health journalists and experienced freelance writers who can handle primary sources. And people with genuine lived experience of a condition, provided the article is grounded in evidence rather than anecdote alone.

You do not need a byline history at a major publication. You do need to be able to read a study and describe it honestly.

Fantisfy does not publish clinical advice, and no one on our editorial team is a licensed clinician. Contributors with clinical credentials are welcome and we will say so on the byline, but every article carries our standard medical disclaimer. More about who we are is on the about page.
