believe me, in this day and time, EVERYTHING comes packaged with sodium, so your getting enough.
sodium, or salt, is an electrolyte (as is potassium) that performs various tasks for active healthy people. dont worry, if your eating properly, your getting enough.

Sodium is salt. You can get sufficient sodium from your daily intake of meat, fruit and vegetables without adding it to your meals. In some people excess salt causes them to retain water and be heavier than they really are. Drink 8-10 glasses of good clean water a day, do not use sauces and many preserved foods that are laden with salt, and the average person will live a happy, healthy life.

We do need sodium in our diet in order to prevent goiters in our thyroid glands, but too much sodium can cause hypertension.
