Salt is not considered to have a GI value, since it takes up a very small proportion of a person's diet. Also, it is a mineral, which generally are not assigned GI values (in the same way that calcium does not have a GI value etc...).

However, foodstuffs are usually assigned a "GI Value" on how much sugar they contain and how quickly it is released. Salt clearly contains no sugar, which, theoretically should make it "low GI".
