New App Identifies Which Foods Are Safe to Eat
Eating right and making healthy choices can be difficult for everyone.

But, people who are looking to completely change their lifestyle and start all over may have more trouble deciding which foods they should consume.

What if there was an app on your phone that could help you decipher all those confusing food labels?

To help compare foods and figure out what's right for you, a new food ambassador app called ipiit helps customize your food and drink preferences. The app enables people to scan a food item and instantly find out what allergens, preservatives and additives are contained in that product.

Co-founder of ipiit, Betty Toth, shares how this app can help you tell what foods are safe to eat.
