If you go to your home page and click on "change Diet Goals". There is a page that lets you trackthe sodium in your foods. It also gives you a recommendation.
Kinda interesting how fast it builts up.

| I am not quite sure, but I think it depends per person. I know that I shouldn't eat any more than 2400mg of sodium per day. Too much sodium makes you retain water, which can make you weigh more. I have decided to track the sodium I consume through the nutrient tracker. I have noticed that most packaged foods contain very high levels of sodium.

| Yes, you do not want to be eating more than about 3 grams of salt a day. The easiest way to accomplish that is stay away from canned and processed foods, example- deli ham and tuna fish. However, if deli ham and tunafish are going to start replacing what once was a hamburger and frys, then eat them. If you don't already have heart disease, you should watch your sodium, but you are better off being in your target weight range.

| Now that I am a label reader, I see some foods have a lot higher sodium(I assume this is salt) in them. Is there a "safe" of target range you want to be watching for?
