If you just consume more salt, there is no problem, right? I'm talking about non-iodized salt. If you consume a lot of iodized salt you might get excess iodine.
In my experience you need to consume more calcium as well. When I was taking both salt only fixed my issues to a certain degree. It wasn't until I added calcium(and vitamin D) that I saw a complete return to some kind of a homeostasis.
