Shopping tip
The ShopWell app is very convenient. You can scan foods with your smart phone while at the grocery store and see if those items meet the filter requirements you have put in place under your settings. You can choose “vegan” as one of your filters, but there are other options you can choose from as well such as “gluten-free.” You can also choose what you’re specifically looking to increase in your diet (protein, iron, vitamin a, vitamin c, etc.) and/or what you’re specifically looking to decrease (trans fat, disaccharides, sodium, etc.)
Select “vegan” as one of your filters in the app. If the food you scan is not vegan, the app will recommend that you avoid it and then offer a list of alternative options that better meet the requirements you’ve listed under your food settings. You can change the settings at any time.
While the app is not for vegans only, it makes vegan shopping a lot easier and can help people customize their diets to better fit their health needs in general.
The app is also free!
Just something to keep in mind. So far, it has really worked for me.
