Is roasted & salted pumpkin seeds a healthy snack?will the roasting process(unsure but dry roasted maybe) reduce the nutritional benefit of the seeds?

Pumpkin seeds: pumpkin seeds are a healthy snack. Salted makes them less so. We all tend to get too much salt which makes us retain water and can raise our Blood pressure among other things.
