Unlike generic apps limited to preset lists, Clear Palate can be customized for many common and specific dietary needs, including:
⭐ Common allergens (e.g., shellfish, peanuts, milk, gluten, soy, sesame, tree nuts)
⭐ Food intolerances (e.g., histamine, sulfites, caffeine, monosodium glutamate (MSG) )
⭐ FODMAP-related sensitivities (excess fructose, fructans, galactans (GOS), lactose, mannitol and sorbitol)
⭐ Ingredient-specific triggers (e.g., corn, pea protein, sunflower oil)
⭐ Additives and derivatives (e.g., sweeteners, flavor enhancers)

You can also add your own custom allergens for a more personalized experience. Coverage may vary based on available data and product labeling. Results are provided for informational purposes only.
