A great game changer!

This app will change the way you choose your food purchases. Give it a try - you will be hooked, and you will be a much better informed grocery shopper!

A DEFINITE MUST DOWNLOAD

We have been using Yuka for several years. You really need to have this app, it will change the way you choose your food products. Additatives are in most food but we didn’t realize how a lot of them are not good for you. Yuka taught us to make better food product choices. We urge you all to give YUKA a try. You will love it.

Hi

BEST APP EVER

Excellent and easy way to check out health info about food and products.

I use this app all the time to check the potential health impacts of (mostly) food. Just be scanning the bar code, it gives you a quick rating (with accompanying details) about things like salt & preservatives in food. Though often hard to find good options in the US (though it does give suggestions), it can help steer you away from some things which you should really try to limit.

Not Impressed

Granted, I’m a new user. But I tried 10 products from my kitchen, most are supplements. Most products are unknown or unrated. Only 1 useful review! I will give it a try again but so far I’m very unimpressed.

Favorite app!

Everyone should be using this app if they care about their family’s health and easily learn there are excellent alternatives with significant benefits.

Healthy choices

I appreciate all the hard work put into this app! Not only does it confirm what I thought was a healthy choice over other products, but it helps me with the other questionable items I didn’t know about. The explanations are great insights allowing me to make better choices! Thank you guys!!! 🙏🏼

For Better Health

This app has been a game changer for me. I easily scanned all the foods in my cupboard and the beauty products in my bathroom and determined what I was doing right and what needed to be improved on. Not only does it point out which items are unhealthy for you, it makes suggestions on other products to use that are healthier. This app has been a game changer and I recommend it to my family and friends!

My go too!

This app changed my life! I feel so much better about my health and I am what I eat now and proud of it!!!

Making my life healthier

My wife and I’ve been using the YUKA app for over two years now, and we use it for almost all of our food and make up products. It’s leading us down a healthier road.

Easy, useful, trustworthy, science based.

Our whole family now uses Yuka: even my 7yr old grandson uses it in the cereal aisle to help him make informed decisions for himself in what cereal to buy! Awesome.

I encourage others to get a subscription: support efforts like this which do not rely on corporate sponsorship!

Thank you, Julie!

Best app, Best project

This app is not just an app that has a goal, it has a proposal behind, the people behind it are genuine, and it really means a lot to have this app in your phone.
You’re kit just getting another app, but you’re getting something that goes with your lifestyle and helps you and your family to live better

Outstanding App

Yuka is the best app for allowing health conscious people make healthy food and cosmetic purchases! As a Health Coach, I share this app with everyone I meet, especially those who may be new to watching what they eat. The best part of the app is that it offers healthy alternatives if your product doesn’t obtain a healthy score. I never shop without it and you won’t either! Thank you Yuka for your hard work!

Essentials

This app is absolutely essential if you care about what you are putting in or on yourself and your loved ones .

Great resource while grocery shopping

I’ve put many foods back on the shelf if I find they don’t rate well. The app helps me determine what to avoid and both my husband and I appreciate that.

Amazing

Best app ever!!! Free!!!!! Although the paid version (very reasonable) is perfect! Enjoy and leave a review to encourage others to use.

Love, but…

I’ve been using Yuka for a long time, the only thing that I recently discovered is that it doesn’t recognize seed oils (canola oils) when scanning. So something could have a high rating when you scan it, but it has seed oils in it and therefore should not have a high rating at all. I hope that Yuka can fix this and give us some more accurate ratings and healthier food options, without seed oils. Once Yuka fixes this, this rating will go back to 5 stars.

Life Changing

This app is a must if you want to have analyzed what you are putting in your mouth. You will find out the chemicals you were putting in your mouth (as you won’t anymore when finding the items ratings). Highly recommended for everyone with medical conditions because it easy to use and helps you change bad eating habits with facts!!!
