The Atlas · Claim check

You've heard it. But is it proven?

These are claims people really make, counted by how many different people said them and graded against what the Atlas shows. Where the evidence is still growing, an Ēnel study begins.

Claims gathered from public health forums, each counted once per person and included once at least 3 different people made it. Verdicts come from the Atlas, as of 22 Oct 2026. Explore the Atlas

Look up anything in the Atlas.

1,724 entries across 16 libraries, each graded from 1, untested, to 5, settled.

Drag or swipe to browse. Cards turn into their own words as they cross the centre line. Use the left and right arrow keys to choose an entry, and Enter to open it in the Atlas.

Ēnel Community

Meet people like you, on the same routine.

Ēnel Community lives in the Ēnel app. Add what you take and see its grade in the Atlas. Read what people on the same routine have noticed, then share your own in posts, replies and 24-hour stories.

How it works.

Here is what happens when you add something to your routine, using a real example.

  1. Add what you take

    You add a Wolverine stack. What are you hoping for?

  2. See the evidence

    Taken for injury recovery. The research behind it is still thin.

    Ēnel studies

    Real world. All inclusive.

    Studies built on the routines people already have. Every experience counts.

    How a study works for you.

    1. Keep your routine

      You choose what you take. The study follows along.

    2. Log as you go

      A quick daily check-in on what you took and how you feel.

    Trials prove cause. Ēnel follows real life, and builds on both.

    A controlled trial
    • Assigns a treatment to a selected group
    • Removes variation to get a cleaner sample
    • Measures a set window, then ends
    An Ēnel study
    • Observes the routines people already chose
    • Keeps real-life variation in the picture
    • Counts every experience, whatever the result
    • Follows the same people over time, and keeps learning

    About Ēnel

    Meet the team.

    The scientists, clinicians, builders and advisors working to make health evidence easier to use.

    For Jeffrey, this mission is personal.

    At 29, Jeffrey Sternberg underwent major surgery to remove his colon. His health journey shaped his belief that people deserve more complete, carefully examined information about health.

    His story is the human starting point for Ēnel's ambition: understand what we know, find the open questions, and help make new evidence possible.

    The truth is something you measure, not something you are sold.

    Why Ēnel exists

    How Ēnel came to be.

    1. 1999

      Inside healthcare

      Jeffrey starts working in healthcare and watches medicine and the business of medicine pull in different directions.

    2. Age 21

      A patient looking for answers

      Diagnosed with Crohn's and ulcerative colitis at once, he worked with renowned specialists and tried the newest drugs, looking for what would last.

    3. 2015

      The question that started Ēnel

      A new combination of medications puts him in danger, and he asks the question Ēnel is built on: which of these is actually working?

    4. The turn

      A different question

      Functional lab testing finds what twenty years of appointments missed. Treatment follows his own data, and he has been free of prescription medication since.

    5. The conviction

      Measure whether it works

      Evidence over influence. Measure whether the thing works, and let the answer come straight from the data.

    6. Today

      Ēnel

      A public Atlas of 1,700+ graded entries, and an open real-world registry for people already following their own routines.
