This intense restriction of the diet, appears extreme to me.
I was on a restricted diet when I was pregnant. No pickles, canned soups etc.
It was 2gm daily max. (this is no longer done in pregnancy BTW)

Not everyone is salt sensitive:

Moderation is the key word. No pickles, canned soups etc...(although new ones are very low sodium now), and things like pretzels/chips, salted nuts.
But without sodium you cannot maintain enough blood pressure to get to the brain. And with working out and sweating, I'd think
some sodium is needed.
It only takes one faint to hit the head, and kill you. My husband's mother hit her head in the bathroom, and was dead in 12 hrs, at age 42.
