  Right now when you click on a summary of your nutrition for the day it shows salt, but not sodium. Generally most products don’t have a “salt” amount on the label, just a sodium amount. It would be helpful if the daily summary included sodium as it is a major dietary concern for many people. The image shows what the current summary looks like.

  Also track the sodium from bar-code read products as well as too much sodium can lead to water retention (water follows sodium in the body) which prevents fast weight loss. If you lose weight but retain water or just retain more water due to high salt intake, your weight loss goals can be in vain. A good daily range is 1500g per day as part of a good weight management strategy for heart failure patients. This is actually stopping me from using Yazio as much as I would like to.

  I personally think it should be tracked in mg, not g. The recommended is 1500mg, not g per day.
