Yuka scans food, beauty & personal care products to decipher their ingredients and evaluate their impact on your health.
In a world of incomprehensible labels, Yuka provides clarity in one quick scan so you can make clear-sighted purchases.
Yuka uses a simple color code to inform you of the product's impact on your health: excellent, good, mediocre, or poor. You can access a detailed info page for each product, to help you understand its grade.
◆ 3 MILLION FOOD PRODUCTS ◆
Every product is evaluated according to 3 objective criteria: nutritional value, additives, and the organic dimension of the product.
◆ 2 MILLION BEAUTY PRODUCTS ◆
The scoring method relies on analyzing all of the product's ingredients. Every ingredient is assigned a level of risk, based on current scientific research.
◆ BEST PRODUCT RECOMMENDATIONS ◆
For any product with a negative grade, Yuka will recommend in total independence a similar product that's better for your health as an alternative.
◆ 100% INDEPENDENT ◆
Yuka is a 100% independent application. This means that product evaluations and recommendations are completely objective: no brand or manufacturer can influence them in one way or another. In addition, the application does not advertise. Find out more about our funding on our website.

Excellent! See what you're eating! Greatly exceeds my expectations. Simple to use. Scan the bar code of any food item - it quickly provides a score with a breakdown of the good and bad. I quickly scanned most of the things in my pantry used regularly and immediately identified 3 or 4 things to eliminate/reduce/replace in my diet. Some scores are obvious - butter is bad with high fat, calories. But, my "healthy" non-butter spread was much worse! It suggests healthier alternatives. Great app!

It's a great app! Free version. The work behind the scenes saves me the time from having to do the research. There's a breakdown of ingredients and explain the risk factors. They provide healthier alternatives as well. No ads, a plus! I look forward to seeing more products added. For a small yearly subscription, there's more. Thank you, Yuka Team!

Overall all great app and very eye-opening the chemicals in our foods. One thing I would suggest is the ability to see what grocery stores carry the products listed under the (alternative) Recommendations, or even a filter where I can select only recommendations that are available at a particular grocery store. That would be very helpful as I don't know if my store carries all the ones that are listed.
