Intoleris' unique advantage

Intoleris is the only app using the validated SIGHI scale (Swiss Interest Group Histamine Intolerance) as its primary methodology. With 9 intolerance protocols, a family-sharing model, and a web app alongside mobile, it's designed for complex, multi-sensitivity profiles — not just single-intolerance users.
