Ingredian Pro: Food Scanner

Description

If a healthy diet is important to you, then take a moment to look at a few food ingredient labels at your local grocery store. You'll find dangerous additives such as monosodium glutamate (MSG) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration claims these are "generally recognized as safe", however independent research suggests otherwise. But what about the safety of other additives such as carmine or confectioner's glaze?

Ingredian Pro uses your phone's camera to scan ingredient label text for quickly detecting additives and other potentially harmful chemicals lurking in your food. All detected ingredients are sorted in order by category with web links to provide additional information for each one.

Ingredian Pro can also assist in detecting allergens such as eggs, dairy, fish, peanuts, soy and wheat. It also includes various diets such as an Alpha-gal diet to detect ingredients derived from red meat.
