I'm of the belief that each individual can control their own salt levels and maintain them at good levels simply by salting food until it tastes 'right'. If your body needs salt you will crave salt and if you have too much salt than food will taste too salty. When governments or their agents set recommended daily allowances and demonise things like salt (like has been done for 30 years) it concerns me. I feel that they set the recommended levels of some elements or vitamins too low so that people think they are getting enough but in actually fact they are not. Vitamin D is a prime example of this in my opinion.
Table salt is shit and should be avoided and replaced by stuff like Himalayan salt (as suggested in another reply) or kosher salt.
Here's an article with a slightly different viewpoint
