BanScan

Screen supplement labels and search ingredients against the Department of War (DoW) Prohibited Ingredients List, with clear results and links to official sources.

BanScan helps service members and everyday consumers make more informed decisions about food, supplements, and other products. Scan an ingredient label with your camera or choose a photo from your library. BanScan extracts the ingredients in label order, checks them against the Department of War (DoW) Banned Substances List, and highlights potential matches for review. You can also search the list directly using an ingredient or alternate name.

When a potential match is found, BanScan provides supporting substance details, including alternate names and additional information. Users can choose between AI-assisted label analysis and on-device processing.

BanScan is a screening and research aid. It does not provide medical advice or make authoritative safety, eligibility, regulatory, or compliance determinations. Always verify important decisions with the appropriate official organization or a qualified professional.
