Hello, dear readers!

Isn’t it funny how life throws a curveball at us, inspiring us to see things from a new perspective? Recent news of the first confirmed famine in Gaza got me ruminating about our relationship with food. It hit me that while some people face scarcity, many of us grapple with abundance, yet both scenarios pose unique health hurdles. It’s as if we’re all walking a tightrope, trying to maintain a precarious balance between too little and too much.

And boy oh boy, let’s not even start talking about the dastardly duo, sugar and salt. They are like those sneaky, charming villains in movies. They make everything better but lurk in the shadows, messing with our best-laid plans. Before you know it, bam! They’ve foiled your secret mission—Operation: Weight Loss.

Did you know that the average American consumes about 77 grams of sugar and 3,400 milligrams of sodium daily? These numbers might just be wildly dancing digits to you, but let me break it down: That’s essentially 18 teaspoons of sugar and 1.5 teaspoons of salt! This is well above the American Heart Association’s recommendation of no more than 9 teaspoons of sugar for men and 6 for women, and the 2,300 milligrams limit for sodium.

Naturally, you might wonder, “But I don’t add that much sugar or salt to my food!” True, a sprinkle here and a dash there doesn’t seem like much. But these crafty culprits are hiding all around your kitchen, from canned soups to frozen pizza, and even in your ‘healthy’ granola bars and smoothies. They are the proverbial wolves in sheep’s clothing, masquerading as comfort when they’re indeed confounders.

So, what’s a health-conscious individual to do? Throw in the towel (or the treadmill, if you will)? No way, José! We fight back! And how do we do that? By enlisting a reliable sidekick in our battle against the villains – Tracking.

You see, we can’t fight an enemy we don’t see, and that’s where tracking comes in. It’s like putting on those cool infrared glasses you see in spy movies. It reveals all the sneaky sugar and salt hiding out in our daily meals.
