Well, let's take a quick step back and understand what's going on here. Salt is a partial diuretic, meaning, it will draw water out of your system. The FDA has 'limits' for the average person in terms of salt intake, and for good reason. If you're a sedentary individual, then yes, limit your sodium intake. If you're someone who works out regularly, drinks more than one gallon of water a day (closer to two), then salt can aid you in the process. Intracellular water retention is anabolic, as it increases intake of nutrients that are essential for growth. Unless you have high BP, you're okay to salt your foods, within moderation.
