PureCheck: Food Scanner

Understand food labels before you buy.

PureCheck turns complex ingredient and nutrition data into a clear, explainable product view. Scan a barcode or search for a food to see what helped or lowered its score—and when the available data is incomplete.

WHAT YOU CAN CHECK • Scan packaged-food and bottled-water barcodes • Search foods by product name • See ingredients and nutrients that affect the score • Understand highly processed foods in plain language • Review label-data completeness and source freshness • See public recall matches when available • Compare better-scoring alternatives • Check public tap-water information by ZIP code • Save recent checks on your device • Report incorrect product information for review

EVIDENCE, CLEARLY LABELED PureCheck separates product-label information, government category data, manufacturer reports, and product-specific lab evidence. Category-level testing is never presented as proof that an exact product or batch was tested.

DATA SOURCES Product information includes Open Food Facts and USDA FoodData Central data.

IMPORTANT Product data may be contributed by manufacturers and community databases and can be incomplete or outdated. Scores are informational guides based on available label and public-source data; they are not medical advice, a diagnosis, or a regulatory determination. Always review the physical package and consult a qualified professional when needed.

PureCheck currently focuses on food products and bottled water.
