When a product has a negative impact on your health, Yuka also recommends similar but healthier alternative products.

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.

AddictingFeature RequestsHate itNeeds to provide healthier alternative product s. Example Heavy whipping cream that I am using show that it has additives that are unhealthy. It shows not alternative. I found a site that listed 10 companies that offer organic heavy whipping cream without additives. Trader Joe’s, 365 by Whole Foods Market, Natural by Nature Organic Cream plus many regional producers. Maybe you can get the users to help search for better alternatives. Give them an Incentive if they offer a better alternative and you list it give them 3 extra month of free membership. Also sugar is one of the most addictive ingredients being used causing cardiovascular disease and diabetes and should be avoided or limited to a maximum of 24 g of total carbs intake per day. The government food chart is flawed by to many special interest groups trying to keep the population unhealthy. Obesity is proof of that. If you want to have a successful App. You have to make it helpful in finding the healthy alternatives products and I think your members if you get them involved will make it happen. If you don’t someone else will lead the way. (Bobby approved is a new app that does that) People are searching for trusted information. They have lost confidence in the FDA and other governmental health agencies . This a golden opportunity to fill that void. Good luck.

AddictingConfusingFamilyFeature RequestsLove itSpendingAs a pregnant mom this has saved me soo much time and is just the most wonderful app I have! I love it so much. My husbands aunt suggested it to me and I have used it since. I just have a couple suggestions that would make it easier to use and would make me love it even more! First, I would suggest a filter option when you search for results on the app, if possible it would be amazing to have a “filter from highest rated to lowest rated” option so I don’t have to spend an hour clicking into every result to check the rating. Because they aren’t in order right now. Also I would suggest doing something like my fitness pal has and allowing customers to also input the information of products that haven’t been reviewed by your team yet. I’m not saying to post them right away but possibly allow that and they could go through a process where someone checks it for mistakes or formula changes before it gets posted. I was thinking it might even save your team some time but who knows it could make it too complicated . Just a thought. Either way that result filter option would be so amazing to have. No matter what I love this app so much and have been telling everyone about it!! 10/10!!

Feature RequestsHate itLove itI love this app so much. User friendly & affordable. 10/10 recommend. Do you know how much excessive phosphate consumption I’ve avoided thanks to Yuka app?? A ton. Shocking to see how many food brands are horrible for your health. I live in a town where cancer is rampant and it seems so many people are dying from it. Just from food scanning through this app alone, I can see why. Cannot thank the people who made Yuka enough. One thing I can add as constructive criticism is the calorie intake part could be excluded. Not saying don’t include the macronutrients of how much something has, but It would be better if the ranking focused solely on hazardous ingredients. For example, It will give an item an undeserved poor rating because it is considered “too caloric” but other than that have clean ingredients 😅 everyone has different weight/calorie goals. We can come to our own conclusion on wether or not something has too many calories based on our life style. So for those who feel guilty for seeing the “too caloric” label don’t feel so bad. Track your own calories and you decide if having a snack is good enough to be included into your day.
