Scan 1M+ foods for toxins, seed oils & ultra-processed ingredients. One science-based health score. See what's harmful AND what's better. Free & 100% independent. Scan 1,000,000+ foods to see what's really in them - toxic additives, seed oils, ultra-processed ingredients, allergens, and more. One science-based health score. Free. 70%+ of foods in US grocery stores are ultra-processed or contain a potentially harmful ingredient. You deserve to know what you're eating. GreenChoice gives you the GreenScore - one simple, science-based health score that tells you how a food impacts your health. Behind that score, we evaluate what no other food scanner does: - Nutritional Quality: macros, micros, and ingredient quality - Processing Level: is it ultra-processed? What's natural vs. artificial? - Ingredient Safety: toxic additives, pesticide and herbicide exposure, antibiotics and hormones - Climate Impact: carbon footprint and water footprint vs. similar products One score. Four dimensions. Built on science. Powered by AI. Guided by experts. WE SHOW YOU THE GOOD - NOT JUST THE BAD GreenChoice doesn't just flag harmful ingredients. We highlight what's healthy too - nutrients to encourage, beneficial ingredients, and foods that meet high standards for nutrition, sustainability, and real ingredients. Science-based guidance, not fear-mongering. BUILT ON SCIENCE. POWERED BY AI. GUIDED BY EXPERTS. Our methodology has been developed over 6+ years and is guided by an independent Science Advisory Board. We are a certified public benefit corporation, legally structured to prioritize your health over profit. Our GreenScore ratings are 100% independent.

I’ve honestly been searching for a long time for a way to eat more naturally and holistically, and get better recommendations for things to buy and support that follow the same values as mine. GreenChoice gives me a way to do all of that and so much more so I’m very very happy with it. Whether you have allergies or you’re following a specific lifestyle there are ways to add that so it adjusts and tells you when a product contains things you’re trying to avoid! Definitely comes in handy for me as I’m vegetarian and it’s hard to know of every product that contains gelatin or animal products but GreenChoice helps me with that now!!! This is something that everyone needs in their life.

This is the best food scanner app I’ve found. I’m very conscious of what I eat, and it can be really hard to find healthy, unprocessed, and toxin-free foods at most grocery stores. My favorite thing about this app compared to others is the score is broken down into processing and food safety (pesticides, chemicals etc) scores, so I can see what parts of the score matter most to me. Some apps only score by nutrient density, which isn’t helpful for avoiding things like phthalates or pesticides.I’m super busy so I have to keep pre-packaged snacks on hand to bring with me to class and gym etc, and using this app makes grocery shopping so much quicker!

Like GreenChoice, I’d like to be transparent. I am the father of the CEO and founder of GreenChoice. I am also GreenChoice’s creative advisor. And I am so grateful that GreenChoice is providing a robust digital food assistant that lets a 62-year-old environmental conscious consumer like myself know how to vote with my mouth and stomach. Want to know which beans is better for the environment, use the GreenChoice app. Want to know which yogurt is processed the least, use the app. Want to know which soup is the safest, use the app. Want to treat your hard-working child to a surprise dinner at their home that aligns with their needs and values, use the app! Thanks to the GreenChoice App I can now leave my grocery store feeling great about my food choices.

Greenchoice has significantly reduced my grocery shopping anxiety! It gives me peace of mind knowing that what I am shopping for and putting in my body is truly healthy. I didn’t realize how much I truly loved it until I went to Trader Joe’s which is not a store covered by Greenchoice at this point. I found myself feeling lost and overwhelmed in the store not having access to Green Scores. This app has added immense value and ease to my life when it comes to my grocery shopping! I can’t recommend it enough and truly can’t live without it now!
