High salt levels increase Aldosterone (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11327640/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11327640/)

Just a guess, but
To produce Aldosterone the body also over produces cortisol resulting in less somatostatin, lowering IGF-1. IGF-1 stimulates the growth and division of both oligodendrocytes and schwann cells so lower IGF-1 would decrease myelin growth and induce cognitive impairment.
