Yes, both my husband get these rashes that itch from ingesting too much salt. I am not a doctor, but through trial and error, I do this to take the "itchiness" away: I put rubbing alcohol on the rash, then wipe w/pure water, then dry the area, then put noxema and carmex on the skin and avoid wearing anything tight over the skin so the skin can breathe. I also sometimes put talc powder (either plain or for powder for atheletics foot) on top as that seems to dry up the rash. When the rash isn't too bad, I just use the rubbing alcohol and noxema (original version). The salt seems to creep in when we go out to eat and is in just about every half-way instant food. Afterwards, I drink lots of liquids the next day to flush the salt out.

Salty food does not cause itchy skin, but if you eat to much salt, you can throw up.

sometimes, it depends on your skin type if it is oily or sensative :)
