About the team behind Arlingtoncemetery.net

Arlingtoncemetery.net has been the go-to resource for information about deceased veterans and military personnel since its inception in 2000. Unfortunately, until now, there has been no list of all those buried in Arlington National Cemetery available to the public on the Internet. Those buried or interred at Arlington National Cemetery (and their families) are protected by the various federal privacy laws. For this reason, we cannot make complete information about individuals resting at Arlington available to the general public via the Internet. Instead, we have chosen to publish only the most relevant information about known deceased individuals at Arlington National Cemetery.

Addiction and mental health issues, of veterans and military personnel.

Because we are deeply involved in the lives and deaths of military service members, we knew back in 2015 that we needed to broaden our scope of topics. For this reason, we decided to publish health information aimed at helping those affected by mental illness and physical obesity due to their military service. 
 
We believe that mental and physical health issues affecting these individuals are not receiving the therapy they need. 
 
That is why we sincerely hope that the information we share on this website will help affected individuals improve their health status. It is quite true that many of the mental and physical health problems suffered by ex-military personnel are similar to those suffered by the general population, but with some significant differences.
 
Indeed, it is the case that individuals who have served in the military are much more likely to suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance abuse, obesity, and potency problems than other individuals. We tailor our content to help veterans and military members with these exact issues.

Our vision

We publish health information written exclusively by real health experts. We only work with reputable health experts to provide the best help to the general population as well as veterans and military members. Whether it's studies, information on health topics, or general product reviews that help promote overall health. We will do everything we can to provide the best help possible.

The editorial process

Our team of serious experts first analyzes in detail each topic, possible addiction condition or product that is suggested to us. Through our professional experience as well as thorough research, it is easy for us to share information and create honest reviews.

Many health issues we have discussed multiple times with individuals who have served in the military. Likewise, we have tested different products with veterans that help with such things as post-traumatic stress disorder, obesity, potency problems, and other conditions.

These include but are not limited to:

  1. CBD products
  2. Potency products
  3. Sedatives
  4. Fat burners
  5. General dietary supplements that promote health.

Of course, we test these products ourselves for benefits and effects so that we can publish meaningful and authentic reviews.

Our goal is to provide our readers with all the information they need to make the best possible decisions about their health – and feel confident doing so. Learn more about our editorial policies.
