Saltwater popsicles are composed of salt, sugar, starch and water. Although the calorie content is low, it will increase energy intake. If the nutrition intake is sufficient, eating salt water popsicles can not only lose weight, but also increase the possibility of obesity.

Saltwater popsicles can quench thirst and relieve summer heat, but because they contain salt, they will increase the daily intake of salt and easily lead to an increase in blood pressure. According to the salt intake standard recommended by the World Health Organization, the daily salt intake of healthy adults should not exceed 5 grams. Although the average salt intake of China people has been decreasing since 2000, it is still far higher than the maximum salt intake recommended by the World Health Organization. Eating relatively more sodium in the diet will lead to an increase in people's blood pressure, causing an increase in patients with hypertension and increasing the risk of hypertension and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
