I have no idea what the usual advice is to chronic renal failure patients.
I do know there are easy to find salt alternatives out there that do not have chemicals and do replace salt with other spices. (Some are low salt, and not no salt). As in, you can find them in your grocery store.
And most people who are on a low salt diet are not renal failure patients. They are people with hypertension.
So er yes a number of salt alternatives out there are just fine. And er yes a number of them are pretty bad for you. And statements like "salt alternative products are bad for you because they replace salt with chemicals" are inaccurate.
