Method Would overdosing on table salt work?

Genuine question, apparently 4+ tablespoons of normal salt can be lethal if consumed rapidly. Would it be possible to genuinely ctb with this?

chances are extremely slim, but if you have a heart condition, they are higher.

It's a stupid non-method. Don't waste your time.

It is technically possible. There are a lot of relatively benign things you can eat/drink yourself to death. You can die from drinking too much water in a short time... look it up. But, your body isn't going to like eating all that salt. You probably end up sick and vomiting before you eat enough to kill you... but you might make yourself hurt quite a bit anyway. I was honestly looking into this for a while, because it is obviously a cheap method and one that you could legally obtain anywhere... but it just seemed in the end like it was going to be really difficult and high-risk low-reward.

Well, if that was a thing, wouldn't it be very common? Why would people work so hard on their methods if a salt shaker would do it?

You would vomit before consuming enough. I knew someone who had an eating disorder and they ate salt to induce vomiting.
