I feel like there's always a debate about keeping the liquid in canned beans vs not. Personally I like to keep it as it makes the dish taste better, but isn't that where most of the sodium comes from?
You either add salt from the liquid, or you add salt independently. You're still getting the same amount of salt if you want to make your dish taste good. If you're avoiding salt for whatever reason, then yeah, don't use the water, but also don't use salted canned beans because there's going to be just as much salt in the beans themselves.
