What's new in PureRootFood • PureScore out of 100 — every scan gets a simple 0–100 score that combines nutrition, additives and chemicals, and organic sourcing, with a clear breakdown of how it was calculated. • Ultra-processed food detection — products are flagged when they're heavily industrial, with the reason shown. • Four plain questions answered at a glance: Is it safe? Is it good for you? Does it limit dangerous chemicals? Is it organic and pure? • Sources for every claim — each health claim links to the authority it comes from (IARC, FDA, EPA, WHO, EFSA and others). • Stays current automatically — ingredient ratings and the farm and shipper directories update when you open the app, with no download needed. • PureRootFood is now a subscription: try everything free for 3 days, then $9.99 per year. Cancel anytime in your device's Subscription settings. • Under-the-hood improvements and fixes.

Updates to code and functionality

Basic updates to make things move smoother.

What's New in 6.2 • Ingredient scans now flag heavy metals and other cancer-causing contaminants — arsenic in rice, lead and cadmium in cocoa and dark chocolate, mercury in large fish, lead in cinnamon and spices, and acrylamide in fried and roasted foods. • Every warning links to its source (FDA, IARC, EPA, CDC). • When a product scores poorly, PureRootFood now suggests a cleaner, hand-vetted alternative you can buy instead.
