About
Yuka offers a mobile app that scans barcodes on food and cosmetic products to evaluate their health impact. Users receive a color-coded score and detailed data sheet explaining the assessment based on ingredients like additives, sugars, endocrine disruptors, and allergens. The app supports informed choices by revealing what is in everyday items.
When a product scores low, Yuka provides independent recommendations for similar, higher-rated alternatives. These suggestions consider category match and availability to make better options accessible. A premium version adds features like offline scanning, search, and dietary preference filters for palm oil, gluten, or lactose.
Yuka maintains full independence with no ads or brand influence on scores. It funds operations through premium subscriptions to preserve objectivity. The comprehensive database covers millions of products, enabling reliable analysis.
