I enjoy a moderate amount of salt and usually use about half of what a recipe calls for.
I do not find that it causes me any ill effects, except my mouth gets sore when eating salty food; I just have taste preference for less salt.
My step-mother cooks such salty food that it is often barely edible for me. I eat lunch at their place several times a week and in order to deal with this, I simply eat very little of the entree and have lots of vegetables or whatever. Then I have another meal when I get home, usually leftovers from the previous night's dinner. This is better for me both because of less salt and because I feel better if I eat smaller, more frequent meals; it avoids the "crash" in late afternoon.
As long as I tell her it was good, she just assumes I have a small appetite and doesn't get offended. It often IS good, just too extreme to make a whole meal out of it - like, candy is good but it's too sweet to eat for dinner.
