Hi,

Blake Graham cited David Klein as follows:

This is some funny propaganda. Sodium chloride is necessary for every
cell of our body to function. Each cell contains so called sodium and
potassium channels.
Also sodium chloride is important to build the stomach acid. People who
don't take up enough sodium chloride (e.g. fruitarians) mostly discover
that they can't digest proteins any longer.

This does   n o t   mean that you should consume refined table salt. But
if your diet lacks sodium chloride or is low in it, like all raw diets, you
might have to supply it by using natural sea salt.

The further conclusions of David Klein rely on the false fact that
sodium chloride is always toxic. Therefore I won't discuss then and
jump to the next point.

This of course is true. Too much salt, especially in modern diets which
make heavy use of table salt, is toxic.

Since vinegar does not belong to the foods which can be found in nature
I won't discuss it here. Personally I don't use vinegar.

The same applies to:

Blake, I would like to see some thoughts of your own on this topic.
How about writing a comment to the articles you cited?
