a pinch o salt in Spring Water will call (the) sanity (in you) normal... but normal ain't always the best you can be... sometimes though it is good to realise/remember that way.

Adding salt to drinking water can be very dangerous, it can cause kidney damage and raise your blood pressure, causing cardiac problems. Don't do it.

It depends on the amount of salt and what kind of salt it is. Table salt is sodium chloride, and recommended daily allowance for sodium is just 1.5 grams. Anything more than that won't help and may be harmful.
Here's some info on macroelements and their recommended daily allowances:

Because you don't eat fries with salt every day, all day, but you should drink water constantly. And yes, too many fries or chips with salt will do some damage down the line.
I thought it was a joke, which is why I didn't respond earlier.

Salt is the first most thing that's cut out of diet for people who are hypertensive ( have high blood pressure ) even before they are prescribed medication to bring their blood pressure down.

this is called "post therapeutic salt management" , I didn't really buy it , but boy was I shocked when I took out salt out of everyday life for patients with high blood pressure (I was shocked because sometimes I brought down the blood pressure so dramatically that even meds weren't needed).

High blood pressure doesn't just damage the heart , it's absolutely awful for other organs too.
