An allergen checker built around your profile

Choose the allergens that matter to you, then use the information in front of you to get a focused, easy-to-read result.

What to know

A clearer way to use this check

Use the method that fits the information available, then verify the exact food before making a decision.

1

Start with your own allergy profile

Select the food allergens relevant to you. Each check compares available ingredient information with that profile instead of showing a generic warning list.

  • Gluten, milk, egg, fish
  • Peanut, tree nuts, soy, honey
  • Change the profile whenever your needs change
2

Use the clearest input available

A complete printed ingredient list usually gives the app more detail than a food photo. Product-name checks are useful when the package is not nearby.

3

Treat the result as a second look

Recipes and manufacturing conditions can change. Always verify the official label and follow advice from your healthcare professional before eating.

Choose the best input

Label, photo, or name?

Use a complete ingredient label whenever it is available. Photos and product-name checks are helpful starting points when packaging is missing.

Continue your check

Compare the three methods and learn what each one can - and cannot - show.
