A woman with a foster child with eating disorders was just convicted of killing the kid because he ate the salt and died.
Everything is toxic. Everything.
If you consume enough of it.
Of course, if you completely cut out salt, you will also die.
So somewhere in there is a balance that works well for humans.
BTW, with salt water and electrolysis, you can make bleach. Salt+processing=bleach. Don't drink bleach either. But in the right quantity, it can save your life.

Last year we put in a salt system to replace our chlorine system in our pool. I LOVE it! Much gentler on the pool liner and hoses [and skin].....and so cheap to operate the pool now!
Yep. A few years ago a local radio station had a contest to see who could drink the most water. One woman died from drinking too much water. Her family just won a lawsuit against the station earlier this year.
Bleach....interesting.
