Gout Food Scanner

About Gout Food Scanner

Managing gout doesn't have to mean memorizing endless lists of forbidden foods. Gout Food Scanner lets you point your camera at any food label and instantly know if it's safe, risky, or a gout trigger , no nutrition degree required.

📸 HOW IT WORKS
Just photograph the ingredients or nutrition panel on any food package. Our AI-powered scanner reads the label (even messy, low-contrast packaging), identifies every ingredient, checks sodium levels, checks for high-purine triggers, and gives you a clear Low / Medium / High risk verdict in seconds.

🔴 WHAT IT CHECKS FOR
• High-purine ingredients — organ meats, red meat, anchovies, sardines, shellfish, yeast extract
• Elevated sodium — flags servings over 400 mg (caution) and 600 mg (high risk)
• Hidden fructose — high-fructose corn syrup and glucose-fructose syrup
• Alcohol-derived flavourings and malt extracts
• Moderate-purine items — mushrooms, asparagus, spinach, poultry, some fish

✅ WHAT YOU GET
• Instant risk verdict: LOW / MEDIUM / HIGH
• Every ingredient colour-coded: safe, caution, or avoid
• Specific sodium reading from the nutrition table (per serving)
• Gout-friendly alternative suggestions
• Personalised dietary feedback — not robotic, not scary
• Full scan history so you can revisit past results
• Works offline once a scan is in progress

🧠 POWERED BY ADVANCED AI
We combine high-accuracy document OCR (the same technology used in enterprise document scanning) with a specialised AI gout nutrition model fine-tuned on dietary guidelines. The result is accurate, nuanced analysis that understands food labels the way a dietitian would — not just a keyword search.

🔒 PRIVACY FIRST
Your food label photos are processed and immediately discarded. We never store your images, and your scan history lives only on your device. No account required. No ads that track you.
