10 Health Publications Accepting Submissions
There are plenty of opportunities for health writers out there. In this article, I’ve detailed ten health magazines, including some well-known publications and some lesser-known ones. If you’re new to health writing and unsure where to start, this article has some sound advice.
Now, on with the list!
SELF
SELF accepts pitches about health, food, fitness, love, beauty, travel, and culture.
According to their pitching guidelines, they typically look for reported pieces that rely on research and expert insights.
This includes how-tos, tips and tricks, and explainer style articles, and they have a list of the type of articles they accept, which is worth a look through.
If you’re thinking of pitching, scroll down to the “what not to pitch” and to the “how to pitch to us” sections.

Eating Well
Eating Well publishes stories that “cover nutrition with a newsy, science-based approach.”
If you haven’t written for them before, they suggest you pitch to the Front of Book section. However, the guidelines also detail freelance-friendly columns like trends, travel, and health.
Pay is $1 a word.
