Be guided by your Doctor, but please understand that your body needs a certain amount of salt to keep it healthy, especially in hot climates. This is because salt is used in the body to balance the osmotic properties of your blood, in part of the bodies self regulatory processes and for the propagation of nerve impulses down nerves. Salt is lost from the body rapidly when you sweat and if you end up with too little salt you can become ill. Therefore a diet with NO salt is probably not good for you. Similarly a diet with too much salt is also bad.
