Frequently asked questions

Is E967 dangerous?
On the classification this reference uses, E967 is "safe". Polyol from birch, sugar substitute, protects teeth. That is a summary of the Russian TR CU 029/2012 list and the EU permitted lists, not medical advice.
How do I check whether E967 is in a product I have?
Photograph the barcode or the ingredients panel — the app reads the list and flags every additive it finds. Three checks are free, with no account.

Check a product rather than guess. Photograph the barcode and the app reads the ingredients, decodes every code and marks the ones worth knowing about.
