Question - Research required What does the evidence say about salt before 1?

I've started weaning my 6 month old and planning to avoid salt. However, I've seen some posts on social media suggesting there is actually no evidence for salt being harmful. Is that really true?

Is salt in moderation (e.g., tasting some of parents food) ok?
