Default Things that make you go ummmm.......

I am from Newfoundland, and culturally we just love salt. We eat everything pickled, or salted. Salt pork, salt fish, salt beef and we have always felt guilty about it. Since I have started the Low carb WOE and I am eating such healthy,nutritous unprocessed foods, I've felt that kicking the salt habit was the next hurdle. I had read research that some people are more sensitve to high levels of salt, but that for most people salt does not affect blood pressure. I did hear/read somewhere that saltt may cause stomach/intestinal cancer. Have you any info on this? Thanks!
