Know what's in the products you use.
Aurascan is a label scanner for food, drinks, cosmetics, personal care and household products. It translates ingredient lists into plain-English explanations of what each ingredient is, why it's in the product, and how it may interact with your body over time.
Labels list ingredients. They rarely explain them.
A typical shopper has 3 seconds to decide whether a label is “good for them.” Scores and letter grades answer that yes-or-no question, but they hide the actual mechanism: the why.
Aurascan rebuilds the bridge between the ingredient list and the body. You shouldn’t need a biochemistry degree to know what you’re eating, drinking or putting on your skin.
How we decide what to show you
Transparency over scores
Evidence before opinion
Education, not diagnosis
What Aurascan is not
Aurascan is an education-first reference grounded in evidence-tiered research. It helps you read a label. It does not tell you what to do about your health.
- A diagnostic tool. It does not diagnose medical conditions.
- A replacement for clinicians or licensed nutrition professionals.
- Advice on medications or treatment.
