Reading labels made easy

A more common thought held amongst Coeliacs, especially those recently diagnosed, is that they have to buy food labelled as 'gluten free'. This isn't the case. There are many foods that do not contain gluten that aren't labelled as gluten free. As the wife of a Coeliac I have had to learn to read the ingrediant label on every product I buy that isn't labelled 'gluten free'. To learn which ingredients and additives (those pesky numbers) contain gluten I downloaded this app and use it when shopping. This is the best smartphone app for Coeliacs or those who are gluten intolerant👍 Over 800 ingredients and 300 additives listed to make shopping and reading labels a breeze. When my husband was first diagnosed shopping was a nightmare until I found this app made by Coeliac Australia 👍 

Simply type 'the Coeliac society' in the App Store. What apps do you use to make your life easier?
