Fig: Food Scanner & Discovery

So excited to see Fig on PH, these founders have been on a TRUE mission to help the millions of people that are struggling with dietary restrictions live a more enjoyable life. I think they've done an amazing job of building an incredibly useful tool AND community - just go peek at the engagement of their Facebook group!

As a person with Celiac, there is always hidden gluten in the things that I eat, which can be detrimental to my health. This app is amazing!! When you check a product, it can easily and definitively tell you about the ingredients, whether its safe for you, and even whether cross contamination during processing of ingredients is a possible issue. This is the best allergen warning app i've tried and I've tried a few. It has an incredibly user-friendly interface which is easy to use, and only takes 4 questions to set up. This app is a total lifesaver for people like me who spend hours in the grocery store checking ingredients. The best part is that this app is free!!

I had been trying to follow the low FODMAP diet for months. I was doing ok but would buy a product I thought might be ok and then it would upset my gut. The product got thrown away because I’m not going to use it again. Then I found FIG. This app is amazing!! I can scan an item at the store before buying it and know if I can eat it. FIG is a life saver. I feel so much better now that I have a much better understanding of ingredients in food.

As someone who has a severe bee pollen allergy, this app literally saves lives. You’d be surprised how many products add random allergens in manufacturing
