If you don't want to gargle with warm salt water, next best thing I would suggest would be Ricola Cough Drops.

It is very ionic salt mixture and magnesium chloride and sulfates.  Some mixtures also contain cupper sulfate.   Since its high in ions not found in your body it dehdrates your skin and decreases the size of your capillaries, reducing swelling which reduces the pain.  Yes, it, like regular salt, is so high in some elements that it kills some cells, dehydrates and oxidizes others.  But only at surface contact.\nIt is also used  as a laxitive and as a fertilizer supplenment for roses and other long flowering shrubs.  I would not use mineral salts as a laxitive because it is rough on your stomach lining and unless is labeled for this use, may not be proccessed for consumption.

If you want to be healthier and also get potassium too, try drinking 2 tbsp of UNFILTERED, UNPASTEURIZED apple cider vinegar mixid with 1 tbsp organic honey. Dilute this mixture in about 4 oz. water. Do this once every day. This is probably one of the most complete and healthiest dietary supplements you can get.

Pickles are not a bad snack in terms of fat or sugar, but where you get into trouble is sodium. Pickles are extremely high in salt.  What they might burn in calories they will make up for in water retention and/or increased blood pressure.

Health effects\nSodium is one of the primary electrolytes in the body. Too much or too little salt in the diet can lead to an electrolyte disturbance, which can cause severe, even fatal neurological problems. Excessive consumption of sodium has also been linked to high blood pressure, although it seems likely that the degree of this effect varies greatly depending on the individual. The Salt Manufacturers' Association (U.K.) claims that there is no evidence of a causal link between salt intake and mortality or cardiovascular events. [1] [2]\n\nA high salt diet has been linked to exercise-induced asthma [3] and a reduction of bone density in girls [4]. On the other hand, salt is used as a health aid as well, such as in treatment for dysautonomia [5].\n\nSalt may contribute to obesity [6].\n\nSalt substitutes (with a taste similar to regular table salt) are available for individuals who wish to restrict their sodium intake. These substitutes contain mostly potassium chloride, which will increase potassium intake. Because excess potassium intake can cause potentially fatal hyperkalemia, it is advisable to check with one's physician and pharmacist before using salt substitutes. Various diseases and medications may decrease the body's excretion of potassium, thereby increasing the risk of hyperkalemia.\n\nTable salt\n \nSingle-serving salt packetsTable salt is refined salt, containing nearly pure (95% or greater) sodium chloride. It usually contains substances that make it free flowing (anticaking agents). It is common practice to put a few grains of uncooked rice in salt shakers to absorb extra moisture when anticaking agents are not enough. Table salt is also often iodised—a small amount of potassium iodide is added as a dietary supplement. Table salt is mainly employed in cooking and as a table condiment. Iodised table salt has essentially eliminated disorders of iodine deficiency in countries where it is used. Iodine is important to prevent the insufficient production of thyroid hormones (hypothyroidism), which can cause goitre, cretinism in children, and myxedema in adults.\n\nTable salt is now used all over the world.

Salt is a required substance for proper body function.  Granted, too much salt can be bad, but there is a certain amount needed in order for your body systems to work.\n\nSo, like any other necessary substance, when the body detects a shortage of salt, you sense a physiological craving for salt.\n\nOn the other hand, some people (myself included) just have an affinity for salty snacks, so we may occasionally take in too much - has nothing to do with need, just desire.

I'm sure there is fat and salt in it, if you're trying to avoid them.  Unless you have it every day, it probably can't make you fat.

the recommended daily allowence for salt is about 2200mg per day so of course anything much well than that is good, keep away from fatty foods, fast foods, eat lean meats chicken and tuna, eat rice, oatmeal, fruits and vegetables, you can even lower your blood pressure by doing so

Good question.  Don't believe anything they tell you in the health store.  I worked in a steel foundry and shovelled a lot of that stuff in the furnace and the warning on those elements were pages and pages.  So, why do they sell it in a heath store?\n\nTake the example of chromium.  The stuff is toxic and causes cancer.  Yet, you go into a health food store and they will tell you its great for diabetes and weight loss.  They should be arrested.  Chromium is used to for stainless steel.  \n\nAnother example is manganese.  The stuff causes parkinsons, but they sell it in stores.  They also sell Silicia, which causes autoimmune diseases like lupus.  \n\nThere are some elements you do need like iron.  I was low in iron myself and had to take it.  (iron is toxic to children)  \n\nSome people have Wilsons disease which is too much copper.  \n\nBut, most of these can be measured by a doctor.  I would never take anything other than a multivitamin.  The rest of the stuff at the health food store is very risky to your health.

I really advise that you dont try it.\n\nToo much table salt will create a sodium imbalance in your body. \nSodium ions in your body are responsible for transferring chemical signals between nerve cells, so as you can imagine it's kind of important.

Potassium is an electrolyte (a substance that maintains your body's fluid levels), this mineral helps regulate blood pressure and heart function. Research shows that increasing your potassium intake can lower your blood pressure. Those individuals with existing hypertension, as well as those just looking to keep their blood pressure in check, can benefit from potassium.\n\nA Harvard study showed that men who took a potassium supplement with a diuretic decreased their incidence of stroke by 60 percent, compared to men who did not. Potassium neutralizes acids and restores alkaline salts to the bloodstream. Potassium works with sodium in all cells including at nerve synapses to maintain or restore membrane potentials and to assist in metabolic processes. Potassium is critical to our cardiovascular and nerve functioning, regulating the transfer of nutrients into cells and facilitating muscle energy.\n\nPotassium also regulates water balance and assists recuperative powers. Potassium aids rheumatic or arthritic conditions (causing acids to leave the joints and ease stiffness). Potassium is crucial for the elimination of wastes. Potassium is a natural pain desensitizer. Potassium helps control convulsions, headaches and migraines, promotes faster healing of cuts, bruises and other injuries and generally contributes to a sense of well being. Potassium is stored in the muscles.
