## What is Histamine Intolerance Scanner?

Is this food right for you? Scan a product's ingredient list or barcode and see at a glance what is well or poorly tolerated with histamine intolerance.

SCAN PRODUCTS
• Take a photo of the ingredient list: the text is read right on your phone, in English or French
• Or scan the barcode: the ingredients come from the Open Food Facts database
• Every recognized ingredient gets a rating from 0 (well tolerated) to 3 (very poorly tolerated), additives and E numbers included (E330, E621…)
• Words like "smoked", "aged", "cured", "fermented" or "canned" on the label are taken into account

FRESHNESS CHANGES EVERYTHING
• Histamine builds up over time: fresh minced meat is well tolerated, the same meat kept a few days in the fridge much less so
• The app warns you whenever a food can get riskier: pre-packed, leftovers, fish that isn't very fresh, aged cheese…
• "Cautious scan" option: when the label says nothing, the scan uses the worst case

675 RESEARCHED FOODS
• Meat, fish, dairy, fruit, vegetables, grains, drinks, spices and additives
• Ratings aligned with the SIGHI food compatibility list and backed by published content measurements
• For each food: why it can be a problem (high in histamine, other amines, liberator, DAO blocker), variants by preparation, and sources you can open
• When data is thin, the app says so

YOUR OWN EXPERIENCE
• Rate how you tolerate each food: your rating shows next to the reference rating, in lists and scan results
• Find all your ratings in a dedicated tab

SIMPLE AND PRIVATE
• Free, no ads, no account needed
• Your ratings stay on your phone
• In English and French
