1. General Rules
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.1 | Every claim, magnitude, label, recommendation, and statement in the QRS is literally supported by content in the source ER. | 🟢 | Every span traced to ER text: at-a-glance to Conclusion, protocol cells to Therapeutic Protocol, gates to Key Interactions & Contraindications, tiers to Expected Benefits / Potential Risks & Side Effects, markers to the Monitoring Protocol & Defining Success table. |
| 1.2 | Where the ER uses cautious phrasing (“not formally studied”, “None documented in human trials to date”, “theoretical concern”, “data are limited”), the QRS uses the same phrasing. | 🟢 | “No established target” (marker_10_target), “No clinical dosing protocol exists” (action_1_sub), “Evidence is thin” (at_a_glance) all mirror ER hedging. |
| 1.3 | The QRS never strengthens an ER claim (e.g., “not formally studied” → “not required”) or softens one (e.g., “do not use during pregnancy” → “use with caution during pregnancy”). | 🟢 | The ER’s ⚠️ Conflicted markers are carried as “(Conflicted)”; the absolute contraindication and the erythritol-specific gates keep their ER force. |
| 1.4 | The QRS does not relabel an ER fact under a different decision category. A “Benefit-Modifying Factor” from ER section is not surfaced as a “Caution”; a “Risk-Modifying Factor” is not surfaced as a “Side Effect”; etc. | 🟢 | Contraindications come from the ER’s “Populations who should avoid Monk Fruit” list, interactions from the interaction bullets; no modifying factor is promoted to a gate. |
| 1.5 | PubMed IDs, study citations, expert names, clinical trial identifiers (NCT*), and brand names appear in the QRS only if they appear in the source ER for the same fact. | 🟢 | No PMIDs, NCT identifiers, expert names, or brand names appear anywhere in the QRS. |
| 1.6 | The QRS does not introduce new attributions. | 🟢 | No attributions present. |
2. Focus, Tone & Audience
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.1 | The QRS follows the tone of the ER, which is determined by the ER’s own language, phrasing, and framing. | 🟢 | Matches the ER’s measured, displacement-focused framing and its British spelling (“standardised”, “glycaemic”, “haemoglobin”). |
| 2.2 | The tone of the QRS is simultaneously expert, accessible, objective, and data-driven, but also empowering and encouraging | 🟢 | Quantified targets and thresholds paired with plain-language subs; actionable without hype. |
| 2.3 | The QRS reads as a trusted, knowledgeable guide rather than a prescriptive doctor | 🟢 | Statements are descriptive (“Blended 1:1 products are used in the same volume as sugar”), not prescriptive. |
| 2.4 | The QRS avoids language that implies medical or clinical advice | 🟢 | No imperative instructions; monitoring cadence is stated impersonally. |
| 2.5 | The QRS “presents information” instead of “providing guidance”, “recommending”, or “advising” | 🟢 | No “recommended”, “should”, or “advised” in the document’s own voice. |
| 2.6 | The QRS never addresses “the reader” directly — it presents evidence, not guidance | 🟢 | No second-person pronouns anywhere in the populated spans. |
| 2.7 | The QRS is written in plain language, avoiding unnecessary medical jargon | 🟢 | Technical terms are limited to necessary drug/marker names; “non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs” is spelled out as in the ER. |
| 2.8 | Information is presented in a concise and very compact manner | 🟢 | Gate and tier items are single clauses; marker “why” cells are short phrases. |
| 2.9 | It DOES NOT address the reader directly | 🟢 | Confirmed; no direct address. |
| 2.10 | The target audience is health- and longevity-oriented adults who are risk-aware, proactive, and actively seeking to optimize health or apply the intervention under review. | 🟢 | Functional optimal ranges (fasting insulin 2–5 µIU/mL, hs-CRP <0.5 mg/L) and CGM time-in-range target address exactly this audience. |
| 2.11 | The target audience is willing to employ lifestyle and behavioral changes as well as follow protocols that may be inconvenient, costly, or require effort. | 🟢 | Pure-extract-by-drops option and a ten-marker panel assume willingness to accept inconvenience. |
| 2.12 | The document is NOT written for the general population, who are unwilling to employ lifestyle and behavioral changes or follow protocols that may be inconvenient, costly, or require effort. | 🟢 | Tight functional ranges rather than conventional reference cut-offs confirm the non-general framing. |
| 2.13 | Framing, takeaways, and risk/benefit weighting throughout the document reflect this audience, including where an intervention’s signal for the average person differs from its signal for this audience. | 🟢 | The at-a-glance and risk tiers foreground the carrier/extract distinction, the decision that matters for this audience. |
| 2.14 | The document’s own voice frames usage in longevity terms, not “anti-aging” (e.g., “anti-aging clinics”, “anti-aging community”, “anti-aging medicine”). Proper names that contain “anti-aging” (e.g., “American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine”) are quoted verbatim. | 🟢 | “Longevity” appears in the title and header; “anti-aging” does not occur. |
| 2.15 | The document’s own voice uses formal clinical and scientific terminology, not colloquial or consumer-grade language (e.g., “oral medication” not “pill(s)”; “injection” not “shot”; “adverse event” not “bad reaction”). Direct quotes from sources are exempt. | 🟢 | “Gastrointestinal symptoms”, “myocardial infarction”, “hypersensitivity”, “stool consistency” — clinical register throughout. |
3. Template Integrity
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3.1 | The following labels and headings on the QRS are fixed and not modified: Card and section headings: “Protocol”, “Time to effect”, “Benefits”, “Risk & Side Effects”, “Monitoring”, “Qualitative Assessment”; Gate headings: “Contraindications”, “Key Interactions”; Tier labels: “High”, “Medium”, “Low”, “Speculative”; Table column headers in Monitoring: “Marker”, “Target”, “Why” | 🟢 | All present verbatim (lines 446, 492, 541, 569, 583, 619, 644, 648–650, 796) with tier labels “High: / Medium: / Low: / Speculative: “ intact in both tiered cards. |
| 3.2 | All “…” from the [qrs_template] are present in the the QRS. | 🟢 | 69 distinct data-qrs-var spans present, covering page/header (4), at_a_glance, action 1–3 (9), time 1–3 (9), benefits (4), gates (2), risks (4), markers 1–10 (30), monitoring_cadence, qualitative 1–5. |
| 3.3 | Spans that are not addressed in a checklist item are left unchanged | 🟢 | The website="evidence_review", website="audit", and website="full_review" spans remain empty and unmodified (lines 423, 426, 440). |
4. Formatting
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4.1 | When the source ER section is empty, the QRS uses the ER’s own empty-state phrasing verbatim. Typical phrasings are “None documented in human trials to date” and “Not formally studied” | N/A | No source ER section mapped to the QRS is empty. |
| 4.2 | Where the ER presents a bulleted item as “Label: content”, the QRS uses the ER’s bold label verbatim as the cell or row label. | 🟢 | “Standard substitution approach”, “Typical amounts”, “Competing approach — pure high-mogroside extract”, “Supplement interactions”, “Other interventions” all match the ER’s bold labels; only the ER’s parenthetical plain-language glosses are trimmed, with the example drug lists preserved. |
| 4.3 | Labels are not paraphrased, abbreviated, or invented. | 🟢 | No invented labels; the time-to-effect labels (“Glucose and insulin”, “Weight and biomarkers”, “Sweet cravings”) name the ER’s own subjects. |
| 4.4 | The QRS DOES NOT use emoji indicators (no 🟩, 🟥, 🟨, etc.). Color and emphasis are conveyed through CSS and bold labels. | 🟢 | No emoji characters in the file; tiers rendered via <strong> labels and the green/red card palettes. |
| 4.5 | The QRS is designed to render on one A4 page. Any section that has more content in the ER than fits the per-section budget is condensed by the LLM, not extended onto a second page. | 🟢 | Tiered items collapsed with semicolons, marker targets trimmed (e.g., marker_10_target), print block retains @page { size: A4 }. |
5. Metadata
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5.1 | The metadata is placed inside a single HTML comment that is the first element after “<!doctype html>” and before any other comment, head, or body content. | 🟢 | Lines 2–14, immediately after the doctype on line 1. |
| 5.2 | Inside that HTML comment the YAML block is delimited by a line “—” opening and a line “—” closing. Text before the opening “—” is permitted but is not parsed as YAML. | 🟢 | Opening --- line 3, closing --- line 13; the preceding title text sits before the opening delimiter. |
| 5.3 | The metadata is not visible in any rendered view of the QRS and is not surfaced by any other element on the sheet. | 🟢 | Enclosed in an HTML comment; no duplicate of these values in the body. |
| 5.4 | All frontmatter values are trimmed: no leading or trailing whitespace, no surrounding quotes unless the value contains a colon, bracket, or leading special character that requires YAML quoting. | 🟢 | Only duration: "00:02" is quoted, which the embedded colon requires. |
| 5.5 | The filename of the source ER is stated as “er_filename: [er_filename]” | 🟢 | Line 4: er_filename: monk_fruit_2026-0811-0409_Opus_ER.md. |

| 5.12 | The filename of the document is stated as “qrs_filename: [filename of this document]” | 🟢 | Line 9 matches the actual filename monk_fruit_2026-0811-0409_Opus_QRS.html. |
| 5.13 | All frontmatter values are trimmed: no leading or trailing whitespace, no surrounding quotes unless the value contains a colon, bracket, or leading special character that requires YAML quoting. | 🟢 | Re-verified across all nine keys; no stray whitespace or unnecessary quoting. |
6. Page Title & Header
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6.1 | [page_title] is set to the [canonical_topic] of the ER frontmatter followed by “ - Quick Reference Sheet” (e.g., “Intervention - Quick Reference Sheet”). The [canonical_topic] is HTML-entity-encoded as needed (e.g., & for &) |
🟢 | Line 22: “Monk Fruit for Health & Longevity - Quick Reference Sheet”. |

7. At-A-Glance Section
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7.1 | [at_a_glance] is dense, execution-oriented summary of the ER Conclusion section |
🟢 | Compresses all three Conclusion paragraphs: unabsorbed mogrosides, displacement-conditional benefit, carrier dominance, thin evidence. |
| 7.2 | [at_a_glance] is no longer than 60 words | 🟢 | 58 words. |
| 7.3 | Every fact in [at_a_glance] is supported by a distinct passage in the ER. | 🟢 | Each clause maps to a distinct Conclusion sentence (lines 419–423 of the ER). |
| 7.4 | It DOES NOT use acronyms or technical classifications that require specialist knowledge, uses plain-language terms instead | 🟢 | No acronyms; “sugar alcohol bulking agent” and “tooth-damaging bacteria” replace “erythritol carrier” and the dental terminology. |
| 7.5 | It DOES NOT cite specific trials (names, years, sample sizes, p-values) | 🟢 | No trial names, years, sample sizes, or p-values. |
| 7.6 | It DOES NOT cite effect sizes, relative risks, or statistical results | 🟢 | No numeric results of any kind. |
8. Contraindications
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8.1 | The section is derived from the ER Key Interactions & Contraindications section |
🟢 | All four items come from the “Populations who should avoid Monk Fruit” list (ER lines 271–273). |
| 8.2 | [stop_items] represent the Contraindications from the ER | 🟢 | Cucurbitaceae hypersensitivity, recent MI/stroke on erythritol-bulked products, dual antiplatelet therapy, and the ER’s explicit “no population contraindicated for the purified extract” statement. |
| 8.3 | Individual [stop_items] are formatted as <li></li> | 🟢 | Four <li> elements inside the stop_items span (lines 572–578). |
| 8.4 | Items are as concise as possible. No trailing explanations, no elaborations, no mechanistic rationale, no attributions, no citations, no study details. No content after an em-dash, en-dash, or hyphen-dash (e.g., “— dose reduction required”, “— reduced efficacy”) — these trailing clauses are stripped. Just the key fact. | 🟢 | The ER’s trailing clauses “— absolute contraindication” and “— pure extract instead” are stripped; no dashes remain in any item. |
| 8.5 | Parenthetical qualifiers from the ER bullet — time windows, severity classes, threshold values, clinical staging — ARE preserved as part of the item, kept as concise as possible (shortened or trimmed where needed to fit the one-page budget, but never dropped entirely). | 🟢 | “(melon, cucumber, pumpkin, courgette)” and the “<90 days” time window are both preserved. |
| 8.6 | When the ER uses ranking notation inside parens (e.g., “>” for severity ordering) that depends on an explanatory phrase to interpret, normalize the items to a plain comma-separated list rather than carrying through the bare symbol. | 🟢 | The ER uses no ranking notation here; the compound erythritol bullet is normalized into two plain items. |
| 8.7 | The section is left empty ONLY IF the ER’s Key Interactions & Contraindications section identifies no population, condition, or scenario for which the intervention should be avoided, deferred, or used only under specialist supervision. |
🟢 | The section is populated, and the ER does name populations to avoid. |
| 8.8 | If the section is left empty, an HTML comment inside the [stop_items] span records the ER basis for the absence, naming or quoting the ER text relied on. E.g. | N/A | The section is not empty. |
9. Key Interactions
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 9.1 | The section is derived from the ER Key Interactions & Contraindications section |
🟢 | Six items map one-to-one to the six ER interaction bullets (ER lines 257–267). |
| 9.2 | [caution_items] represent the Key Interactions from the ER, excluding any that are already listed as Contraindications | 🟢 | The ER itself keeps the antiplatelet interaction bullet separate from the dual-antiplatelet-therapy avoidance population; no ER bullet is duplicated across the two gates. |
| 9.3 | Individual [caution_items] are formatted as <li></li> | 🟢 | Six <li> elements inside the caution_items span (lines 586–609). |
| 9.4 | Items are as concise as possible. No trailing explanations, no elaborations, no mechanistic rationale, no attributions, no citations, no study details. No content after an em-dash, en-dash, or hyphen-dash (e.g., “— dose reduction required”, “— reduced efficacy”) — these trailing clauses are stripped. Just the key fact. | 🟢 | Every “Caution.”/”Monitor:” lead-in, mechanism sentence, and “Mitigation:” clause from the ER is stripped; only label plus drug list remains. |
| 9.5 | Parenthetical qualifiers from the ER bullet — example drug lists, time windows, severity classes, threshold values, clinical staging — ARE preserved as part of the item, kept as concise as possible (shortened or trimmed where needed to fit the one-page budget, but never dropped entirely). | 🟢 | All named agents preserved: glimepiride/glipizide/gliclazide/repaglinide, aspirin/clopidogrel/ticagrelor/apixaban/warfarin, ibuprofen/naproxen, polyethylene glycol/senna, magnesium citrate/vitamin C/inulin, berberine/chromium picolinate/alpha-lipoic acid, semaglutide/tirzepatide. |
| 9.6 | When the ER uses ranking notation inside parens (e.g., “>” for severity ordering) that depends on an explanatory phrase to interpret, normalize the items to a plain comma-separated list rather than carrying through the bare symbol. | 🟢 | No ranking notation in the ER bullets; drug examples are rendered as plain comma-separated lists. |
| 9.7 | The section is left empty ONLY IF the ER’s Key Interactions & Contraindications section identifies no interaction, additive effect, or exposure that changes how the intervention is used. |
🟢 | The section is populated and the ER names six interactions. |
| 9.8 | If the section is left empty, an HTML comment inside the [caution_items] span records the ER basis for the absence, naming or quoting the ER text relied on. E.g. | N/A | The section is not empty. |
10. Protocol
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10.1 | The section is derived from the ER Protocol section |
🟢 | All three cells trace to Therapeutic Protocol bullets (ER lines 293, 297, 299). |
| 10.2 | The three sets of [action] items cover the three most important actionable implementation aspects from the ER Protocol section |
🟢 | Substitution principle, conversion amount, and the pure-extract alternative — the three decisions the ER treats as determining outcome and carrier exposure. |
| 10.3 | If less that three distinct actionable implementation aspects are mentioned in the ER the unused sets are left empty and made invisible, not filled with placeholder text or empty-state phrasing. | N/A | The ER supplies more than three actionable aspects; all three sets are used. |
| 10.4 | All used [action_#label], [action#value], [action#_sub] items are filled with meaningful content derived from the ER Protocol section. |
🟢 | All nine spans populated; e.g., action_2_value “1/200th to 1/250th the mass of the sugar replaced” matches ER line 299. |
11. Time to Effect
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 11.1 | The three sets of [time] items cover the three most important time-to-effect aspects from the ER | 🟢 | Glucose/insulin (immediate) and weight/biomarkers (8–12 weeks) from Practical Considerations; sweet cravings (several weeks) from the ER’s qualitative marker list. |
| 11.2 | The sets are picked and ordered by the magnitude of the related benefit | 🟢 | Order follows the benefit tiers: High (glucose and insulin), Medium (weight and biomarkers), then the adherence-related craving change. |
| 11.3 | If less that three distinct time-to-effect aspects are mentioned in the ER the unused sets are left empty and made invisible, not filled with placeholder text or empty-state phrasing. | N/A | Three distinct time-to-effect aspects exist; all three sets are used. |
| 11.4 | All used [time_#label], [time#value], [time#_sub] items are filled with meaningful content derived from the ER. | 🟢 | All nine spans populated with ER-supported content, including “the effect is displacement of sugar rather than a pharmacological action” (ER line 348). |
| 11.5 | If the ER does not provide any information on time to effect, the section is removed completely from the Protocol Panel |
N/A | The ER does provide time-to-effect information, so the section is correctly retained. |
12. Benefits
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12.1 | The section is derived from the ER Expected Benefits section |
🟢 | All four tiers map to the ER’s High/Medium/Low/Speculative headings (ER lines 141–179). |

| 12.3 | Items are as concise as possible. No explanations, no elaborations, no effect sizes, no qualifiers, no attributions, no citations, no study details, no mechanistic explanations, etc. Just the key fact. | 🟢 | Only the ER’s benefit headings are carried; every Magnitude: figure (10–18% glucose, BMI 0.6 kg/m², patient counts) is dropped. |
| 12.4 | Parenthetical content — including effect sizes, sample notes, mechanistic hints, and example studies — is stripped, NOT preserved. | 🟢 | No ER parenthetical detail survives; the only parenthesis is the ER’s own ⚠️ Conflicted evidence flag, retained per 1.3 with the emoji removed per 4.4. |
| 12.5 | If no items of a specific sub-section (high, medium, low, speculative) are present the respective is set to “display=none”, not filled with “None documented in human trials to date” or similar empty-state phrasing. | N/A | All four benefit tiers contain items in the ER. |
