Traveling this summer to WDW after recently being told that my diet needs to be no or low sodium. Has anyone experienced successfully finding low sodium options in the parks or at the Wilderness Lodge?

I’m pretty sure that if you speak to your server, they can adjust the sodium or (in many cases) the chef will come out for assistance
My DM cannot have a lot of sodium. My DH can’t have dairy and also anything spicy. We were last there in 2021 but they used to be able to eat at most TS including buffets. I do not know if anything has changed but at the restaurants we have gone to over the years they used to have some type of protein that was not marinated so they would have that cooked in a no dairy no salt cooking spray along with some type of potato or fries and vegetables. At some of the Italian places they could cook the pasta in no salt water and a plain tomato sauce or olive oil. At Boma they made things for them in the back. At breakfasts whether at a food court or TS they could make fresh eggs and potato with fruit. DM can only have certain fruit due to medicines she is on and she found out some have salt so tells them which she can have. By the way Whispering Canyon Cafe is one of our favorite breakfasts.
It's tough. I'm in the same situation. Ask to speak with a Chef at any TS. I was able to get unsalted/unseasoned potatoes, unsalted steaks with unsalted butter, etc..
Load up on fruit snacks, veggies, protein shakes, and whatever healthy snacks you run across or bring with you. I found portion control was the key.
It does though also depend on your restriction. I started at 1500mg, then went to 1750mg then to 2000mg. My Dr is okay now if I have a day or two where I get to 3000mg but can't do that regulary.
