I have been trying to eat healthy and exercise plenty after a long stay in the hospital. (I also have diabetis). There are food and exercise trackers..BUT they fail to divide natural Sugar from added sugar or Saturated fat from the good fats. Do you know of any sites/apps that do this? My primary health focus is fats, sugar, and sodium.

Way to start focusing your intake on some great metrics. All three of those items are key, especially related to heart health. Lose It is one app which does separate saturated fat from total fat if you click into "My Nutrients". I'm not aware of one that separates added vs natural sugar (this is unfortunate, but perhaps because that is a newer change in food labeling). Weight Watchers (WW) uses a points systems, though it does display a full label for each food, including different fats and added vs. natural sugars. Is there an app you are more comfortable with?
