What PureScan Analyzes

Explore food ingredients,
additives, and more.

PureScan reads a product's ingredient list and nutrition information, then shows what it finds.

📋

Ingredient List

See the full ingredient list on record for a product before you buy.
🏷️

Additive Check

Looks for common colors, sweeteners and preservatives in the ingredient list.
🌿

Seed Oil Check

Looks for canola, soybean, sunflower, corn, safflower, grapeseed and cottonseed oil in the ingredient list.
🥜

Allergen Information

Shows allergen details on record for a product. If you have an allergy, always check the current package.
🏢

Brand Ownership

See the likely parent company behind a brand. Suggested by AI and public data, so it can be wrong.
🍽️

Processing Check

Shows when a product looks ultra-processed, based on the NOVA scale, if there is enough data.
🔁

Other Options

🎯

Your Preferences

Tell PureScan your diet and allergens so results reflect what matters to you.
ℹ️

What a Scan Can't Tell You

PureScan reads labels. It does not test food, so it can't measure heavy metals, microplastics or other contaminants.
Data Sources

Where the data comes from.

Product records come from Open Food Facts and our own database, and can be incomplete or out of date. Check the package when it matters.
