Bill, one of the dynamics which occurs when we go strict low carb after having consumed carbs as our primary fuel for many years is that sodium gets flushed by the kidneys at a dramatic rate in the first couple weeks due to the initial transition away from glucose as primary fuel. In order to make up for that, consumption of more salt is recommended. Couple that with the recent findings that salt and sodium RDA has been reduced over the years, so as we go low carb, we're starting at a lower salt consumption point, so it makes sense to consume more salt when we reduce our glycogen stores. If we choose to stay low carb, it's always good to eat a healthy amount of salt, as that's the amount we need for this WOE.

I'm no expert, but this is what I've learned about myself with much help from others on this forum coupled with the research I've done about healthy salt consumption. All the best.
