In small and limited quantities, salt is very good for you! We need salt to let our body function.

It is weird, but we all need some.

It depends on your health, but a little is healthy for you in food because it is a mineral, also if you ever go to a pool  and it tastes salty that's because salt is in the pool and it shows that salt can help make bones healthier and stronger, better than chlorine. So in a way yes.
