Discover how to make healthier choices with AskZOE.

AskZOE is more than just a food scanner app – it's your personal guide to understanding and improving your metabolic health through smarter food choices.

The AskZOE Score is based on an algorithm from our Predict Studies, the largest nutrition studies in the world with scientists from Harvard, without the personalized metrics we collect with the full ZOE program. We’re scoring these foods on whether they will be metabolically helpful or challenging. This understanding is crucial for making informed choices that align with your health and wellness goals.

Key Features:

Food Scoring: Understand how different foods challenge or support your metabolism using our advanced algorithm derived from extensive Predict Studies.

UPF Detection: Easily identify Ultra Processed Foods (UPFs) with a high content of freely available fats and sugars – known contributors to poor metabolic responses.

Nutritional Quality Insights: Learn about the quality of fats and sugars in your food and discover how food matrices impact nutrient absorption and overall health.

Scan History: Allows you to review your past scans, observe patterns in your eating habits, and make more informed choices moving forward.

Good start

It’s helpful but I’d love more specific information about the rating scales for each category. This would be especially helpful when it comes to rating a food as Ultra-processed. As I’m trying to educate myself in healthier choices, I want to know why a product is being labeled UPF. There have been a couple of products with all recognizable ingredients that still have this label.

Great food scan app - easy to understand the “why”

Just downloaded the new Ask Zoe app and have been using it for a few days. It’s very user friendly and simple interface gets me information I want quickly.

I also love that it stores previous scans so I can easily compare similar products to choose the best one.

Best part though is they clearly show why a food is good or bad. I’ve never been into tracking macros to really understand what makes a food better than others or worse, this cuts to the point and lets me know the “why” without having to understand nutrition in a detailed way. Including learning about ultra processed foods that I’ve been hearing more about. It’s not always straight forward what makes something ultra processed, this takes guess work out if it for me and my family.

Looking forward to taking the app on my next grocery shopping trip - scans are fast, will be fun to compare items while I shop to be more informed.

Your shopping companion

I’ve started scanning foods while I shop and it’s been a game changer! I’m even making different choices about bagged salads and vegetable broths and things I used to assume were all healthy. I’ve also found it lowers my grocery bills to eat healthier, too. Thank you, Zoe Science and Nutrition for the research and public science communication you’re doing. You really are helping people live healthier lives. Next up: get city and rural planners, corporations and politicians on board!
