Regardless of what you hear about so-called ‘deadly’ salt, if you don’t get enough you will put your body into stress mode. This can even cause weight gain. Here is a quote from Dr. Simeons’ book, “Pounds and Inches” (1971 revision), that is still good advice regarding salt and weight loss:

All the best with the hCG diet plan,
