Question 1

What does Jain-friendly mean on SatvikScan?

Accepted Answer

A Jain-friendly product is one where SatvikScan has not detected ingredients commonly excluded under the site’s Jain dietary rules. These include onion, garlic, root vegetables, meat, eggs, and other restricted ingredients. Always check the current physical product label because formulations can change.

Question 2

Are onion and garlic Jain-friendly?

Accepted Answer

No. Onion and garlic are commonly excluded from Jain diets. SatvikScan does not mark a product containing detected onion or garlic ingredients as Jain-friendly.

Question 3

Are root vegetables Jain-friendly?

Accepted Answer

Root vegetables are commonly excluded in Jain dietary practice because harvesting them harms the entire plant and may disturb small organisms in the soil. SatvikScan checks stored ingredient information against its Jain dietary rules.

Question 4

Is Jain-friendly the same as vegetarian?

Accepted Answer

No. Jain-friendly is more restrictive than a standard vegetarian label. A vegetarian product may still contain onion, garlic, potato, carrot, beetroot, or other ingredients excluded in Jain dietary practice.

Question 5

Can a product be vegan but not Jain-friendly?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A vegan product can contain onion, garlic, root vegetables, or other plant-based ingredients that are excluded under Jain dietary rules. Vegan and Jain-friendly labels answer different dietary questions.

Question 6

Are Jain-friendly product results guaranteed?

Accepted Answer

No. Product formulations and labels can change. SatvikScan results are based on stored ingredient information, and pending community submissions have not completed moderator verification. Check the physical product label before making a dietary decision.
