A clear concise overview of an important current topic. It is reporting on research conducted/overseen by the BBC, but it does accurately summarise the findings from a large study involving many media organisations internationally, and provides links to the relevant sources which give a lot more detail. It would be nice to have a brief commentary on whether other non-BBC studies exist that target similar questions, and whether those studies (even if smaller in scale) support the findings.

The article is more about how social media influencers can drive trends rather than describing scientific evidence around this question. It does at least link to NHS info about nutrient intake, and emphasise that influencers may be biased by commercial incentives, but at the same time devotes several paragraphs to an anecdotal description from one user. To counter these claims it relies entirely on quotes from two nutritionists, rather than providing any overview about what scientific evidence exists in this area (e.g. randomised controlled trials testing the effect of magnesium on some of the symptoms listed). Given the known side-effects associated with taking too much magnesium, and lack of evidence provided for the suggested benefits, it seems irresponsible to include one nutritionist's suggestion to take half the recommended dose in the article.

Generally clear article summarising a recently published peer-reviewed research article, including quotes from authors of that article. The personal story from an affected family helps emphasise the impact of the condition. Some links to further sources of information (rather than just the links to other Independent articles with the same keywords) would be useful - perhaps the Diabetes UK charity website as a reliable source of general info, or the University press release. It could do a slightly better job of explaining the study and relevance of age - the original study looked at donors spanning a range of ages including adults with/without T1D as well as children, but the article doesn't contrast the findings for young children v adults.

Clear article summarising recent statistics released by the MetOffice. It would be nice to have URLs towards their data releases or further information rather than just quoting the figures. It does a reasonable job of explaining the metrics and terms (e.g. false autumn). However the plot could be substantially improved to emphasise the relevant trend - it currently seems no better than a simple list of the top 10 years & temperatures, and requires the viewer to work out the ordering of the years. Including the intervening years (or at least giving some indication of the range of summer temperatures) would place the temperatures in context, and emphasise the increasing frequency of hot summers.

Very brief article. Imagine people would click on the title though this is a bit misleading - it makes it sound like they are roaming freely across the county! Needs some links / referencing for further information - e.g. to the charity mentioned at a minimum.

An accessible and interesting article, with lots of relevant links to other articles and videos of interest. I thought it explained the scientific concepts clearly, and had an engaging style by introducing the history of the field. Perhaps the title is a bit alarmist and might make parents concerned (though the end of the article is more balanced on this).

The article summarises the finding of a peer-reviewed research study (and provides the link for this), and addresses an interesting question for public health. It could reference further work in this area to provide a more balanced overview of the topic. In general though it could be much clearer and more accessible to a general audience, e.g. the lifestyle and lifespan definitions are vague (e.g. what constitutes regular physical activity?), and more effort could be made to illustrate the impact of the % changes in terms of altered years (a figure would help).

A fairly clear overview of the topic, though I think the descriptions of techniques could be simplified and the article could focus more on providing a balanced overview of the potential benefits and concerns. Additional links to relevant articles and websites providing more information would improve it.
