How old can a child start eating salt?

Patient's question:

Half my daughter is 8 and a half months old, and she has never eaten salt (some books say it's okay to eat salt only after a year). Now she can't stand on her feet for long; she can only stand for a short while. Is it related to not eating salt? How old should a child be to start eating salt?

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Hello, the situation you mentioned is the condition of the child's lesion. Suggestions: This condition is often seen in lesions caused by calcium and salt deficiency. This situation requires active supplementation treatment. Generally, children can eat salt-containing foods in moderation after four months.
