π₯ What's REALLY In Your Food? The App Exposing It All π
This week on Thirsty Thursdays, I sit down with Galen Karlan-Mason, founder & CEO of GreenChoice β a public benefit food health intelligence company that has analyzed over 1 million foods across the US using science, data, and AI! ππ‘
Watch on YouTube!
π Key Takeaways:
π GreenChoice scores every food across 4 dimensions: Nutritional Quality, Processing Level, Ingredient Safety & Climate Footprint
π± The app is 100% FREE β download "Green Choice Food Scanner" in your app store right now
π Over 70% of grocery store foods are ultra-processed or contain a harmful ingredient β you deserve to know what you're eating!
π 60% of US adults have a diet-related disease β most of which are preventable through food choices
ποΈ 22 states have now restricted SNAP benefits from being used to purchase soda and candy β a seismic shift for the F&B industry
π° For every $1 spent on healthy food benefits, studies show $3 in healthcare savings
πΏ About β
of global greenhouse gas emissions are tied to our food system β every purchase is a vote
π§ͺ GreenChoice's science advisory board ensures zero brand influence on scores β brands cannot pay to change their ratings
π The platform is helping retailers, healthcare systems, and consumers align around food as medicine
π GreenChoice tracks over 150 million data points and 1,000+ dietary, health & sustainability attributes
π¬ Galen's message: "Times of not knowing what's in our food are behind us. People want to know what they're buying is safe for themselves and their families."
