Detect and Avoid Products that Damage Our Planet
The consumer products we use every day and the processed foods and whole foods grown by conventional agriculture have a profound negative impact on our Planet: Killing aquatic life, damaging our ozone layer, or destroying rainforests for example. Tera detects them and recommends better alternatives.
Why Tera?
Consumers and the Planet Need Protection from Toxic Chemicals
The average person is exposed to over 100 chemicals daily. The EU has banned 1,328 chemicals in cosmetics vs. 12 in the US. We are not protected.
Chemical exposure has been linked to rising rates of cancer, asthma, autism, ADHD, reproductive problems, and other health issues, not to mention the impact on our environment, rivers & oceans, and the ozone layer.
According to the EPA, less than 1% of the 80,000 chemicals used in consumer products in the U.S. have been rigorously tested for human and environmental safety.
Solution: Tera has analyzed and scored 200K+ household cleaning, personal care, and cosmetics products sold in the US at the ingredient level based on international chemical safety standards in collaboration with health and environmental toxicologists. New products are analyzed and scored every day and added to our database.
Allergies triggered by consumer products are on the rise
85 million or 25% of Americans now need to avoid allergens in the food they buy.
The number of American children who experience food allergies has been growing about four times faster than the population has for at least 20 years.
It is very hard to know from a product label alone what allergens are present in a product.
Solution: Tera detects the presence of allergens in products and empowers users to avoid products with the allergens they are sensitive to.
Processed food is killing us
60% of calories for adult Americans come from processed foods, and 66% for children!
Packed with sugar, starch, and harmful additives including allergens and addictive chemicals, these products offer very little in terms of nutritional benefits.
They are causing chronic diseases like Type 2 diabetes, Heart Disease, Obesity and Cancer
Solution: Tera detects toxic additives, allergens, poor nutrients, and foods that cause chronic disease and recommends healthier alternatives.
