Iphone/ipad Apps? Anyone Use Shopwell?

I know this has been asked before, but I didn't see anything recent and these things change all the time.  Does anyone have iPhone/iPad apps for gluten-free that they love?  I just downloaded something called Shop Well and it seems like it might be useful (has a bar code scanner), but I'd love some kind of easy lookup app.  Anyone know how often these things get updated if ingredient lists change?

 

Thanks.

I use shop well. However, if it says something contains gluten, I go right to the ingredient list to see what is in red.  Sometimes it is modified food starch or caramel coloring that causes the app to tell you to avoid a product.  I have scanned Sweet Baby Ray's bbq sauce (that says gluten free on the bottle) and it tells me to avoid it due to the caramel color.  It is not a perfect app, however it is a useable tool in my toolbox every time I shop.

Thanks - so it tends to err on the more conservative side?  I guess that's better than the other way!

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      By Jason Dyer · Posted

      Thanks, Scott and Trents. Scott, tastes vary of course. The metallic taste may just be me. As to the filtration efficacy, I can only add that the micron level to remove a smaller protein chain must be pretty tight. What about the impact of hydrolization on the R5 test? I've been told it presents a challenge. Trents, thanks for the clarification. I did not draw this distinction, but can. I honestly didn't perceive the nuance.  Appreciate the feedback from you both.

      Medicinal mushrooms 🍄

      By Liquid lunch · Posted

      I don’t think it matters much if you trust the supplier, I get them from a Welsh company maesyffin mushrooms but I think the guy there has retired from growing now and just resells eu imports so it’s probably the same mushrooms he uses to make the tinctures as the company you posted. It’d probably be cheaper to buy dried and make your own tincture.

      Could this be Celiac disease?

      By Chissers · Posted

      Thank you for your prompt reply. Have others experienced LUQ and L sided back pain when on gluten? Could gluten be irritating the pancreas to cause the slight rise in lipase?

      Wow! I'd be interested to know where you get the tinctures. You can DM me if you wish. There's a Spanish company ... hifasdaterra ... who make high quality medicinal mushrooms in capsule form.
