Is it possible to overdose on salt?

Fatal salt overdoses are rare, as they require people to consume amounts of salt approaching 0.5–1 gram per kg of body weight. This is equivalent to 35–70 grams of salt (2–4 tablespoons) for a 70 kg person.

However, people with health problems such as heart failure, as well as liver or kidney disease, can experience fatal effects if they consume more than 10 grams of sodium (25 grams of salt) per day.

So, moderate your consumption.
