If I had to choose, they would be the 2 I would include in my regimen as they are the hardest to get the amounts we need from just the food. The epidemic development of hypothyroidism and the misuse of real salt are key in the decline of our nations' general health.
Here are 2 links that will get you started. Be sure to check out the rest of the talks. The salt info on 2/4 of the first link is the one on salt that will directly answer your salt question. All the info is important on both talks so I encourage you to listen so you get the whole picture.

I've read and "thought about" similar issues with regard to salt useage that your recent posts have explained........
Years ago, everyone knew that you needed the iodine and the salt to keep things balanced. Salt was a precious commodity in the past.
Similarly, we all knew we needed that winter or spring tonic that our grandmothers doled out in the form of cod liver oil.......and other natural remedies. Now, Vitamin D3 is big business in supplemental forms, when all one needs is a few minutes per day of sun exposure.....to get the much needed sunshine vitamin.
From babyhood today, kids are covered with floppy hats....sunglasses and slathered with sun block. WE all played out with none of that.
Might I add, that when the FEAR of skin cancer came in vogue and everyone began slathering sun screen all over themselves and their children........or staying out of the sun entirely, is when all the "rheumatism" type ailments became so prevalent.......now referred to as auto immune diseases............whereas in our "grannie's day" it was just part of the aging process.....and the winter aches and pains were normal.
Not in need of a specialist.
People of old knew that the sun was a healer. I know about the ozone layer, etc. ..........just saying. Everything in moderation. To ban everything is not good.
People didn't have so much STRESS worrying about everything in the old days. Even with most cancers, there is no pain until the very end.
We remember what it was like back in the '50s and '60's and even the early '70s.............no chemo, no radiation........more power to the ones now "fighting through" this terrible disease, however, oftentimes as we've seen with our own eyes...........it's the cure that causes the terrible symptoms that have to be dealt with.........and the prolonged suffering for some patients.
We saw a movie the other evening about a child who had been conceived just to have her organs harvested for her elder sister who had leukemia.
Sad story, but eventually, the teenaged older sister, dying of cancer, convinced the younger girl to become emancipated from being an organ and bone marrow donor to "save" her sister...........it really hit home what that poor teenager went through from early childhood. A surprise ending of sorts.........as even the lawyer had wondered why the younger sister had come to that decision alone.........."to everything there is a season"......people should not fear death which is just a transition.......
Obviously, there are all kinds of cancers, but we've seen the worst......and the potential cure and treatment that these folks went through was horrific.......they died anyway. Had they not gone through with the radiation and chemo.........their quality of life would have been much better. Even doctors know this, but they have to follow the rules of the hospital to which they belong. Nuff said.
