Normally people who have hypertension crave for salt. I have hypertension managed with medication but, I don't crave for salt and my entire family has to add salt to their portions of the cooked food which has less of it because of my less craving. How come?

Not all hypertensives crave for salty food and it is advised to take less salt as sodium in table salt is not good pressure
