To add another experience - My 2 year old son definitely likes salty food. We never gave him sodium supplements or salted his bottles, but once he started table foods he clearly preferred salty food. Cottage cheese was the only dairy food he would eat for quite a while (check out its sodium content!). His sodium and potassium levels have always been in range, although he has been both undersuppressed and oversuppressed on the liquid Cortef. (Thankfully he is now on the pills). Like someone else mentioned, I notice when he sweats alot (and he does seem to sweat more than others) he really goes for the salty foods. Interesting thread. It never ceases to amaze me how differently this condition is treated.
