Description

◆ 65 MILLION USERS ◆ Yuka is a free mobile app that allows you to scan the barcodes of food and personal care products and instantly see their impact on your health. A rating and detailed information help you understand the analysis of each product. When a product has a negative impact on your health, Yuka also recommends similar but healthier alternative products. ◆ A 100% INDEPENDENT PROJECT ◆ Yuka is a 100% independent project : product reviews and recommendations of healthier alternatives are done in an objective way. No brand or manufacturer can influence them in one way or another. Furthermore, there is no in-app advertising. You can access detailed information on our business model on our website (www.yuka.io). ◆ 5 MILLION REFERENCED PRODUCTS ◆ Yuka established a database that contains 3 million food products and 2 million cosmetic products. Each food product is evaluated according to 3 objective criteria: nutritional quality, presence of additives and organic aspect of the product. The method to analyse cosmetic products is based on the analysis of all the ingredients of the product. Each ingredient is assigned a risk level according to the latest scientific data. --- Terms of use: https://yuka-app.helpdocs.io/l/en/article/2a12869y56

    Great app! I try to avoid ultra processed foods, but it’s difficult. This app brings an awareness and recommendations for substitutes. I have shared with family and friends. So easy to use. Highly recommend

  • Excellent app

    This app has really been a lifesaver!!! Not only has it been helpful in informing me in all the harmful additives in the foods we often eat in the US but it also helps me scan for Soy as I shop for my mom who has an allergy and you would be surprised how many products have soybean in it!!

  • Seed oils...

    I love this app. But, to be totally functional for me, I need it to call out seed oils. It leaves me going to another app for that!

  • This is a Must-Have!

    If you have been reading about “UPF”s like I have lately, and concerned about the cancer causing chemicals we are putting in and in our bodies, then this app will be a game changer for making healthier decisions for ourselves and the planet. I have used it for over a year, but today I became a “premium member” because I want to support this worthwhile company. Ignorance is bliss, but knowledge is power, and I choose knowledge! Thank you, Yuka!

  • Yuka is a game changer!

    My wife and I use the yuca app every time we go shopping. It is definitely changed what we have bought as we decided to live a more healthier lifestyle. The best thing about this app is the fact that it gives you recommendation of a more healthier option which we always take advantage of.

  • Helpful, accessible health insight!

    I love this app. To be able to quickly rate the food & beauty products that I use regularly to know if there are harmful ingredients is invaluable. I’ve always wanted something like this because it’s so hard to know which ingredients are bad. Also, with how many options we have available to us today, it allows me to choose healthier products that often don’t even cost more. One quick example, I was rating mini travel body washes (each around $2). One was rated “bad”, one was “good” and one was “excellent.” Without this app, I would have chosen one randomly. Now I can easily choose the healthier option and avoid putting harmful ingredients into my body!

  • Review accuracy

    I love this app. It’s so easy to use, but I am concerned with how the user submissions are evaluated. I submitted one because that product was not in the database. But it makes me a little concerned with the accuracy of the ratings.

  • Cool but inaccurate

    Awesome how it lists all of the ingredients. However, what it considers healthy is subjective. It will list butter as bad and certain oils as fine, etc.
