The Substack Health Directory

Independent voices the pharmaceutical industry doesn’t want you to hear.

I hope everyone has had a great start to the New Year.

I thought it would be nice for my first Substack Post of 2026 to be geared toward community building.

Substack has become one of the most important platforms for long-form writing on health and medicine—particularly for those willing to challenge institutional narratives.

But anyone who’s watched the last decade of online publishing knows how this usually ends: platforms tolerate controversial ideas—until they don’t.

The pharmaceutical industry is a criminal enterprise generating trillions of dollars in revenue. It will not take sustained, organized criticism lying down—and it will use every tool at its disposal to suppress voices that threaten its interests.

I expect Substacks covering controversial topics will eventually get nuked. But the fact that you can take your email list with you is a game-changer. On every other major platform, you’re operating on rented land. When the rug gets pulled, there’s no recourse.

On that note, a friendly reminder to fellow Substack writers: regularly download and back up your email list. Audience ownership only matters if you actually safeguard it. If this platform turns hostile, those lists will be the lifeboat that allows communities to regroup elsewhere and keep the work alive.

Why we need more voices

We didn’t end up where we are because of one corrupt doctor or scientist lying in isolation. Massive institutions—and the legions of people on their payrolls—repeated the same narratives in unison, manufacturing a social consensus about what is “true,” even when it isn’t.

That’s why we need as many voices as possible amplifying more honest perspectives on health, in every way they can. People wake up differently: for some, it’s a long-form article; for others, it’s a meme, a short post, or a concise summary that finally cuts through. Most people just follow the herd, so volume and repetition are what break the spell.

The purpose of this directory is to help you discover health-focused Substacks that challenge mainstream narratives. There are many ways to present information effectively; my own publishing style just happens to lean toward executive-summary articles—synthesizing and distilling the most important, compelling information as concisely as possible for maximum impact—because most people don’t have the time, interest, or attention span to dig through everything themselves.

The directory

Consider this a very rough first draft, not an exhaustive or definitive list. I drew some arbitrary boundaries to keep it manageable for now; all criteria are subject to change as the directory evolves.

• Health-focused Substacks. Only writers primarily covering health are included.

• Substack-native. Writers publishing elsewhere are excluded unless they also post on Substack.

• Active on Substack. Must have posted within the past year.

• Audience size. Rough cutoff of ~3,000 subscribers to keep the list manageable.

• Vaccine stance as a baseline filter. While there is significant disagreement among people on this list across many topics, the minimum requirement for inclusion is that the author does not recommend vaccines. People may disagree on why—but recommending vaccination is a dealbreaker for this directory.

This current draft reflects my own reading habits and blind spots, so I’ve undoubtedly missed many worthy Substacks—my sincere apologies. Consider this a living document that will evolve over time. I’ve sorted the list alphabetically for now, but in the future I may group Substacks by category. If I’ve mischaracterized a writer’s work, overlooked a Substack that should be here, or made any other mistakes, please let me know in the comments. I welcome all suggestions and feedback.

Without further ado, here’s the list.
