Himalayan Rock Salt & Lemon Candy is meant to be a sports candy, meaning if you suck on it during your jog, you might just beat your 2.4km record.

However, turns out, the drink wasn’t as well-liked as its candy counterpart.

The person who tried the drink felt that it was “moderately refreshing”, but doesn’t have the same X factor as the candy.

Another Facebook user wrote in the post’s comments section that it’s “not nice” and “tastes like Kickapoo”.

Another user said it tasted more like 100 plus, except “cooler”.

Similar to the candy, the drink is also produced by a manufacturer in Malaysia.

Be Careful With Your Himalayan Salt Candy

On a separate note, if you’re a hardcore fan of the candy, here are a few PSAs you might want to pay attention to.

The first is the fact that it might not be as good for your body as you think.

Back in 2019, a dietician from Malaysia, by the name of, Mohd Khairul Azhan, shared about the negative effects of the seemingly harmless item of confectionary.

He explained that it poses more of a danger to one’s health as compared to other candies in the market, and this is all because it contains a relatively high amount of sodium.

The Himalayan Salt candy should not be taken as a casual alternative to regular sweets as one’s sodium needs are often fulfilled by their everyday diets, he pointed out.

He added that the Himalayan Salt candy should only be consumed by individuals who actively perspire, those taking part in high-intensity sports activities, and those who are clinically diagnosed for having a low sodium content in their blood.

In other words, for people who exercise regularly.

On the other hand, he advised those suffering from heart or kidney ailments, as well as, those with high blood pressure, to give the candy a pass. Pregnant women should also avoid the candy as it elevates the risk for pregnancy-induced hypertension.

Also, there were reports of fake Himalayan Salt Candy on the market before where a batch of candy that wasn’t recorded in the manufacturer’s database was being sold in stores.
