12 Top Reasons to Eat Watermelon
Sweet treats in the summertime... yummm... especially when these treats are cold and refreshing!
The classic image of going out for ice cream on a hot summer eve can be so appealing, but remains that, an image - at least for those of us who make food choices that don't include refined sugar.
The very best way to satisfy that hankering for a cold and refreshing sweet treat in the summer is with a juicy watermelon. (A one-cup serving of this healthy, delicious snack is only about forty eight calories!)
And satisfying our "summertime sweet tooth" is not the only reason to eat watermelon
- here are twelve other very important health reasons to eat this delicious
fruit...
- Provides additional water to the body (watermelon is about 92% water!)
- Good for bad breath
- Serves as a hangover remedy
- Can improve sore throat and mouth sores
- Cleanses the kidneys (juice the entire watermelon
- rind, seeds, and all and drink for a good kidney cleanse)- Naturally gets rid of excess fluid in the
body - it has diuretic properties- Liver supportive - contains glutathione
- Cleanses blood and strengthens glands -
contains chlorophyll- It is a good source of potassium
- Fat free - low in calories, high in energy
- Nutrients in watermelon include vitamin A, vitamin B6, and vitamin C (it also contains fiber and has no fat or cholesterol!)
- Helps lower the risk of heart disease: watermelon has the highest amount of lycopenes in fruits and veggies according to the USDA Caratenoid.
