No more label math. This is the best bariatric food tracker app free — built to make every grocery trip faster, calmer, and more confident.

6 BARIATRIC-FOCUSED SCORING FACTORS

Bariscan scores every product using six factors weighted for post-bariatric nutrition:

Sugar (25%) — Flags added sugar, hidden sugars, and HFCS
Protein (25%) — Prioritizes higher-protein choices
Fat / Dumping Risk (20%) — Highlights common dumping triggers
Fiber (10%) — Supports steadier post-surgical digestion
Ingredient Quality (10%) — Spots sugar alcohols and hydrogenated oils
Calorie Density (10%) — Favors nutrient-dense options

This bariatric macro calculator app does the analysis so you can spend less time reading labels and more time living your life.

DUMPING SCORE — KNOW THE RISK BEFORE YOU BUY

Dumping syndrome affects up to 85% of gastric bypass patients. Bariscan flags the dumping risk for every food you scan based on sugar, fat, and trigger ingredients. See the risk — Low, Medium, or High — before it goes in your cart.

The only free bariatric app with dumping risk flagging on every scan.

EVERY BARIATRIC SURGERY TYPE

✔ Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y / RNY)
✔ Gastric Sleeve (Sleeve Gastrectomy / VSG)
✔ Lap-Band (Adjustable Gastric Banding)
✔ SADI (Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass)

Whether newly post-op or years out, this bariatric surgery app understands your specific dietary needs.
