Be very wary of any advice on the internet regarding nutrition and diet. Nutrition is one of those universally experienced things that everyone has an (often poorly informed) opinion on.

I would spend some time perusing PubMed for review articles regarding sodium intake and health outcomes.

Here's a start:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5098396/

Quote:
BP correlates with sodium intake, with multiple mechanisms underlying this relation. Preclinical and clinical studies demonstrate that sodium adversely affects multiple target organs independent of BP.
Quote:
Because of the weight of evidence in favor of salt reduction and the difficulties in organizing a clinical trial, the AHA recommends a population-wide reduction in sodium intake
