About Ingredian: Scan Food Labels APK
Table Of Contents
Description
If a healthy diet is important to you, then take a moment to look at a few food ingredient labels at your local grocery store. You'll find dangerous additives such as monosodium glutamate (MSG), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and even worse! The U.S. Food and Drug Administration claims these are "generally recognized as safe", however independent research suggests otherwise. But what about the safety of other common additives such as propyl gallate or sodium nitrate?Introducing Ingredian, the food scanner. Ingredian uses your phone's camera to scan ingredient label text for quickly detecting additives and other potentially harmful chemicals lurking in your food. All detected ingredients are sorted in order by category with web links that provide additional information about each one.
Ingredian can also assist in detecting allergens such as eggs, dairy, fish, nuts, soy and wheat. The Ingredian Pro paid version supports an Alpha-gal diet, i.e., red meat allergy diet.
This app scans ingredient label text on the product container. Similar apps scan bar codes, which are frequently out of date or missing entirely from the connected server's database.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
