A colleague of mine just pointed this app out. I love that this exists.
But make sure to dig into the additional info and draw your own conclusions.
For instance, it ranked Pure Life water (a typical bottle of water) at 65/100 because it contained sodium bicarbonate. This is something in the category of emulsifiers, a category that one study related to breast cancer, a preliminary study noted to have discrepancies. That’s a few leaps of correlation via a single one-time study with documented issues.
Anyway, I’d say the app is still worthwhile then having no easy guidance on product health and safety.
