"I honestly can't believe I went this long without this app. I've tried others but they just give you a pass/fail with no explanation, this one actually tells you why. You can see every ingredient broken down, what it is, and how it's classified. I finally feel like I understand what I'm putting in my cart.”

WISEcode vs. others

Most food apps are useful tools, but they stop at the nutrition facts panel, which captures less than one percent of what is actually in your food. The WISEcode Food Truth™ app starts where they stop. It runs on NFP+™, the world's most comprehensive food dataset, utilized by independent researchers and leading institutions. Every feature is free, with no subscription, no paywall, and no ads.
