I'm curious why these practitioners wouldn't use calcium ascorbate or even potassium ascorbate rather than sodium ascorbate?
Although the modern paranoia of sodium (low-salt diets, etc.) is frequently just that, paranoia, in fact a significant percentage of the population can have problems with too much sodium. The folks using the salt-Vit C therapy to combat various health issues would be wise to add a significant intake of potassium to their regime. If the body's sodium/potassium ratio is unbalanced, there are important issues to consider. Buffering ascorbic acid with calcium or potassium is preferable to sodium, in my opinion.
