Meaningful ingredient, nutrition, and processing context, without decoding the label yourself.
See how it fits
The same food can fit differently depending on your goal and your day. Validus shows both sides honestly.
Know what to do next
Add, pair, adjust, swap, or keep the choice exactly as it is. Every result ends in a practical step.
Food quality, goal fit and your next step.
Validus connects ingredient quality and processing context to the goal you choose. Meal IQ adds meal composition and nutrient tracking, with an explanation of what to do next.
No banned foods, no fear. Quality, amount, frequency, and purpose all count. That's why dark chocolate can hold a Good band and still be honest about training days.
No. Validus is an evidence-informed educational tool. It helps you understand foods and fit them to your goals. It does not diagnose, treat, or replace guidance from your clinician.
How is it different from other scanner apps?
Validus combines ingredient-level food quality, goal-specific insight on PRO, meal evaluation and nutrient tracking. Results include practical next steps and explanations.
Do you ban foods or tell me what not to eat?
Never. There are no banned foods and no fear labels. Quality, amount, frequency, and purpose all count, and plenty of everyday foods hold strong bands.
