Sodium Counter and Tracker: Precision Salt Management for Heart and Gut Health

Use this app to control sodium and salt intake for lower blood pressure, a lower risk of osteoporosis (high sodium intake increases calcium excretion in the urine), and a lower risk of stomach cancer (excessive salt damages the stomach lining). Set your target daily sodium intake based on guidance provided in the app (or as advised by your healthcare provider) and your preferences for weights of food (g or oz) and display of sodium content in foods and beverages (ie, %target/serving, mg/100g or mg/1oz, or %target/100g or %target/1oz). Record food and beverage consumption using the barcode scanner, dictation or search, or by favoriting foods and using the serving sizes provided (which can be changed at any time). Tap the notepad to add notes. Monitor daily and long-term progress, export data to share with healthcare providers, synchronize data with other First Line Medical Communications Ltd nutrient counter apps, and share data with Apple's HealthKit. Add your own foods (a sodium/salt conversion tool is provided) and recipes and change serving sizes to personalize the app's 400-item database for you. All food and beverage popups indicate whether the item is a plant, good prebiotic, probiotic or ultra-processed food (UPF) to inform a healthy diet and whether they are high or low FODMAP per serving where data are available to support people with irritable bowel syndrome.  The app also provides nutritional information for many healthy foods and supports a healthy gut microbiome diet using color-coded type and icons.
