Add tools to track daily intake for salt consumption

Add tools (weekly graph or something else) to track daily intake for "caffeine, salt, sugar, cholesterol, saturated fat and trans fat" since it is recommended to limit the amount of those taken each day.

Hi all, 

 

Just to make clear what I propose, I know that salt can be seen in the "Nutrition Facts" button of each day.  

 

What I am proposing is to have tools to monitor if there is a problem in our regular eating pattern.  I am proposing to monitor "caffeine, salt, sugar, cholesterol, saturated fat and trans fat", since the health agencies seems to recommend limits to stay under in regards of those intakes.  

 

Maybe it could be graphs (similar to the "calories graph" in the app) where you can see the target for every day and know which day have been exceeded in regards of "caffeine, salt, sugar, cholesterol, saturated fat and trans fat, etc"

This would be very beneficial for me, hence why I’m looking it up! My mom just gave me her Fitbit so I don’t know much about it right now but I have POTS/Dysautonomia and I have to keep track of my heart rate. One of things that helps POTS/Dys is increased salt intake. I have to have 5-10grams a day whether it’s adding extra to my food, drinking electrolyte drinks, etc. I was looking if there was a way you could add how much salt you consume like how it lets you do with water. It would be so much easier to keep track of
