About James Waters & Moonlight Hawk
A publishing brand built on clinical experience and a respect for the evidence.
The author
James Waters is a Registered Nurse with more than 35 years of healthcare experience, including a decade in critical care nursing and 24 years with the Department of Veterans Affairs. During his VA career, he served as a Rating Veterans Service Representative (RVSR), Decision Review Officer (DRO), and Rating Quality Review Specialist (RQRS), evaluating complex medical evidence and helping ensure accurate, defensible decisions.
He is passionate about helping people navigate the often-confusing world of health, nutrition, and wellness. After observing the growing amount of misinformation surrounding wellness topics, he began writing and publishing resources designed to present practical, evidence-informed information in a clear and accessible way.
Through Moonlight Hawk, James shares insights, guides, and educational resources that help readers evaluate health information more critically, make informed decisions, and support healthier living.
Our Mission
Why Moonlight Hawk exists
Moonlight Hawk provides practical, research-driven health and wellness resources to help people make informed decisions and live healthier lives.
Health information has never been more abundant — or harder to judge. Moonlight Hawk exists to cut through that noise: to present what the evidence actually supports, in plain language, without hype, fear, or a sales pitch. Every resource is written to be accessible to readers who are starting from scratch, and to respect the reader's ability to make their own decisions.
Moonlight Hawk's content is educational. It is designed to inform, not to provide individualized medical advice. For personal medical concerns, please consult a qualified healthcare professional.
