I built an app to make logging your sodium/salt intake much easier. This would be great for anyone looking for better way to manage hypertension.

Hi everyone! 👋

I wanted to share a project I’ve been working on called Sodi: Sodium & Salt tracker.

The idea started because managing heart health and hypertension shouldn't feel like a full-time job. Most of us are told to "watch our salt," but between deceptive nutrition labels and "hidden" sodium in things like bread, cereal, and even cottage cheese, it’s incredibly hard to actually do.

We built Sodi to be a heart-healthy sidekick that turns complex data into actionable insights in seconds.

Some of the core features:

• Smart Label Scanner: Point your camera at any nutrition label to instantly see sodium content, percentage of your daily goal, and true servings per container.
• The Dilution Counter: This is a unique feature that automatically scales your water intake targets based on your salt load to help your body recover.
• Hidden Salt Alerts: The app flags "stealth" sodium in everyday items and provides plain-language explanations for why they are flagged.
• Ingredient Intelligence: We identify 25+ ingredients (like MSG and nitrates) with plain-language health explanations.
• Frictionless Tracking: One-tap "Quick Add" for favorites, Siri voice logging, and secure Apple Health sync.

Privacy First: Most data processing happens on-device for speed and privacy. We leverage HealthKit for secure syncing and never sell your health data.

We are officially live on Product Hunt today and would love to hear your feedback! Whether you're managing blood pressure or just trying to eat cleaner, I'd love to know what other "hidden" health insights you’d find useful.

What’s under the hood:

• Smart Label Scanner: It doesn't just read the mg; it parses "servings per container" so you don’t have to do the mental math.
• Quick logging
• Sync to Apple Health
• Track sodium or salt
• Doctor-Ready Exports: You can generate PDF/CSV reports specifically designed to be shared with a physician.

If you struggle with hypertension, bloating, or just want to see how much salt is actually in that "healthy" soup, I’d love for you to give it a spin.
