We checked his blood pressure and it was 170 over 100. I think sodium intake should be restricted to minimal additional salt other than in cooking.

Also, there is no need to be too restrictive on salt intake in a child with diabetes simply because has diabetes.
General rules apply also for children, but avoiding adding salt to food.
