If a salt water pool has a DE (diatomaceous earth) filter, then the filter depends on the DE for filtration. Salt water pools must be filtered just the same as fresh water pools. Not all filters use DE however. There are also sand and cartridge style filters that do not use DE. Salt is added to a pool usually to enable the use of a salt water chlorine generator which can eliminate the need to add chlorine because the chlorine is generated electrically from the salt. It does not eliminate the need for filtration and in the case of a DE filter, does not change the need for DE.

yes the salt will dry out your insides if you drink a cup it helps a sour throat not to much it doesn't only dehydrate you it kills you

No your body has a certain level of salt in it. That includes your blood. Google isotonic solution. Isotonic means equal to body salt levels. An isotonic solution is easier on you than pure water. I have had a salt pool for several years. The salt pool does not hurt your eyes like a plain water pool. My salt pool also stays cleaner. The small amount of salt in a salt pool is near isotonic. You can't taste the salt in the pool.
