Sufferers of chronic headaches and/or migraines know the
difficulties of a grocery store trip. Certain ingredients, chemicals, and
additives can trigger these painful attacks, making the task of food shopping
tedious. Fortunately, ContentChecked Holdings, Inc. (OTC: CNCK) has developed
an app that lets users know if the foods they’re putting into their carts
contain risky ingredients. After scanning an item’s barcode, the
MigraineChecked app will let the user know if any ingredients are migraine
triggers. This app offers users a simple approach to preventing migraine
headaches while making healthy choices.
According to the Migraine Research Foundation, over 10% of
the world’s population suffers from migraines. More than 90% of these people
cannot function properly during an attack, which results in school or work
absences. In the United States alone, 36 million people suffer from the
syndrome with 14 million people experiencing painful episodes each day. These
numbers are hard to ignore, making the MigraineChecked app a valuable tool for
prevention.
The whole premise of MigraineChecked is to alert the user of
foods containing migraine-causing ingredients. Some of these ingredients are
hard to identify; that’s when the app steps in. Processed foods with monosodium
glutamate (MSG), artificial sweeteners, nitrates, nitrites, and flavor
enhancers are known to cause the syndrome. Even chocolate, alcohol, caffeine,
peanuts, and cheeses containing tyramine are common triggers. The app will
immediately alert the user if any of these pesky potential elements are present
in a food item.
ContentChecked aims to arm consumers with nutritional data
that can help them make informed grocery choices for their specific dietary
needs while promoting a healthy lifestyle. The app and website also offer
delicious recipes with customizable dietary restrictions to suit everyone’s
tastes. These recipes include appetizers, desserts, beverages, and entrees. The
company will continue developing more apps, such as VeganChecked, in order to
reach a wider audience.
