Description

How does your food score? How do we know what we’re eating, really? Food processors make so many claims these days. Supermarkets are loaded with foods that contain chemicals no one can pronounce.

EWG’s Food Scores houses information on tens of thousands of foods in a simple, searchable online format designed to guide consumers to healthy, affordable food that’s good for people and the planet.

The database includes more than:
• 80,000 products
• 5,000 ingredients
• 1,500 brands

How did we come up with our scores? We combine these ratings into a single overall product score.

-- Nutrition. The nutrition scoring algorithm considers multiple factors, including calories, saturated fat, trans fat, sugar, sodium, protein, fiber and fruit, vegetable and nut content.

-- Ingredient concerns. The ingredient concerns algorithm focuses on factors such as the likely presence of key contaminants, pesticides, hormones and antibiotics and the health implications of certain food additives.

-- Processing. The processing score reflects EWG's best estimate of the extent to which a particular food has been processed. Scoring factors include modification of individual ingredients from whole foods and the number of artificial ingredients.

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.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

3 ★Needs to be updated!
3 ★Is this app the best 4 what it can do?
1 ★Can't scan bar codes app crashes
1 ★Scanner broken
5 ★This app is awesome. The only thing i would want them to work on is that as soon as i hit scan on my the camera opens and takes the pic of the bar code. The app does not give you the chance to adjust the position of the camera as all other bar scaners do. I think this will help people finding the products they are looking for.
4 ★I love this App. While it doesn't have every single item in it's data base, as that's an impossibility, it has most. My daughters help me select the most nutritious, safest, low pesticide food choices as we shop, knowing they're the healthiest. How can you beat that!? What will they come up with next? We are a spoiled generation, to our benefit!
3 ★I've seen that the barcode scanner doesn't even work. I've tried several products and they do not come up on screen when scanned. Also store brand foods need to be added to the database.
3 ★So far, everything I've scanned isn't yet listed. I'll give it time, though, and keep scanning while their database grows. Great idea, this app!
4 ★Needs more things added. But it's nice the Barcodes that aren't recognized ate sent in for review/addition.
4 ★Thank you for building this database. Great concept with time can only get better.
5 ★Many barcode searches come up empty, I hope this will improve.
1 ★I scanned a bunch of stuff and it all said not found. So not helpful.
