Salt enhances the flavor of foods and brings out the savory flavors in baked goods. Try cooking your favorite recipe with all the herbs and spices omitting the addition of salt. Taste the product before adding salt, even with the herbs and spices, the dish will end up with a bland flavor. Then add the salt and taste the dish, salt will enhance the flavors of the herbs and spices that you used. The same principle in baked goods using flour.

What can you use instead baking soda?
Using Baking Powder Instead of Baking Soda* You need to use 2-3 times more baking powder than baking soda. The extra ingredients in the baking powder will have an effect on the taste of whatever you are making, but this isn't necessarily bad. * Ideally, triple the amount of baking soda to equal the amount of baking powder. So, if the recipe called for 1 tsp baking soda, you would use 3 tsp baking powder. * What I do is compromise... I use twice the amount of baking powder as baking soda (add 2 tsp of baking powder if the recipe calls for 1 tdp baking soda), plus I omit the salt (which adds flavor but also affects rising in some recipes).
