Description:Find out what your food is really made of. Identify vitamins, minerals, as well as other nutrients that are good for you and eat healthier by avoiding trans fats, food preservatives, artificial sweeteners, colorants, and other unhealthy chemical food additives.
Edibly helps you eat healthy by allowing you to...
~ scan a barcode of a product off the grocery shelf to get a breakdown of its nutritional content
~ get an easy to understand list of the ingredients and their meaning
~ find out what is safe to eat and what should be avoided
~ quickly find healthier alternatives right at the supermarket
~ scan the ingredient list itself if the product is not in our database
Edibly dissects the ingredient list to help you find out what food manufacturers are hiding, including...
~ added sugar and salt
~ artificial sweeteners used in "sugar free" food
~ food coloring used to make the food look healthier
~ processed fats (trans fat and processed oils)
~ various additives and preservatives used for "fat free" food
With Edibly in your hands you can...
~ use your smartphone to be a smarter food shopper at the supermarket
~ lose weight more effectively by spotting tricks used by manufacturers to make food appear diet friendly
~ be confident in your purchases by knowing exactly what the products you buy are made of
~ have fun in the store while browsing for healthier snacks and meals for kids
~ avoid specific ingredients you have concerns about
Edibly doesn't rely on a product database, so if we don't have a particular product when you scan its barcode, you can still get all the information you need by taking a photo of the ingredient list. How cool is that?
Edibly rates the health effect of ingredients in a simple manner anyone can understand...
~ if the ingredient is believed to be unhealthy, best avoid it
~ if the food additive hasn't been extensively tested, best not risk your health and avoid it
~ if the ingredient is actual food you can grow or catch and little processing is involved, eat it!
~ no complicated algorithms you can't wrap your head around
With Edibly you don't have to rely on the marketing blasted at you by the food manufacturers, struggle with complicated diets invented by scientists that are impossible to follow, and easily spot the chemistry in your food. Edibly allows you to know what you eat and eat what you know.
