LetMeLive (Open Food Safety India)

An open-source aggregator for food safety test results in India.

⚠️ DISCLAIMER: READ BEFORE USING

1. We Are Not a Lab: This project does not conduct independent lab testing. We only aggregate publicly available test reports from NABL-accredited labs, consumer organizations, and regulatory bodies.
2. No Liability: The maintainers of this repository are not liable for the accuracy of the third-party reports, nor for any changes in product formulation or batch quality.
3. Verify the Source: Every entry in our database includes a direct link to the original report. Users should always verify the latest status with the original source before making consumption decisions.
4. Batch Specificity: Food safety results are often batch-specific. A "Fail" for one batch does not necessarily imply the entire brand is unsafe forever.

🎯 The Mission

Finding safe food in India is hard. Lab reports are scattered across PDFs, YouTube videos, and paywalled magazines. LetMeLive centralizes this data into a simple, open-source JSON database that anyone can query, audit, or build apps upon.

📂 Data Sources

We aggregate factual data (Brand Name, Pass/Fail Status, Batch Number) from the following public sources:

• Trustified (Supplements & Health Foods)
• Unbox Health (Packaged Foods)
• The Liver Doc (Herbal & Ayurvedic Safety)

🤝 How to Contribute

We believe in Open Data. If you have found a verified lab report that isn't listed, you can contribute directly by adding it to open_data.json.
