How to Scan a Product

Scanning is simple:

1. Open the LowTox app (add it to your home screen for quick access).
2. Take a clear photo of the product’s ingredient label.
3. Receive your toxicity report within seconds.

Understanding Your Results

Each scan report includes:

• Toxicity Score — A score out of 100 based on ingredient safety.
• Flagged Ingredients — Any ingredients that match known harmful chemicals.
• Health Risks — What each flagged ingredient is linked to.
• Safe Swap — A recommended safer alternative product.

Score Ranges

• 80–100 (Green): Safe — no major concerns found.
• 50–79 (Yellow): Caution — some ingredients worth watching.
• 0–49 (Red): Avoid — contains harmful or banned ingredients.

Tips for Better Scans

• Ensure the ingredient list is fully visible and in focus.
• Good lighting helps the AI read labels accurately.
• If a label is too small, try zooming in before taking the photo.
