Health benefits of watermelon

The watermelon is 90 % water, so whichever diet you are on, it can do no harm. In fact it is good for you. The fruit is high on potassium, so easily replenishes salts that are lost due to sweating. It prevents dehydration, dry skin, tanning and headaches. It enhances the Vitamin D level and protects you from the UV rays. It is also a rich source of vitamins A, C and B6. Last but not the least, this thirst quenching fruit can brighten up your meal with its good looks.

Remember…

Watermelon should be consumed within an hour of cutting it

Refrigerated watermelon juice with lemon juice stays a little longer.

A quick remedy for dehydration is to mix water melon juice with glucose. It quickly helps cope with loss of vitamins in the body.

Watermelon is a thirst quencher but avoid having it as the potassium content in it could react with other acidic or citric content leading to discomfort.

A study says that 21 litres of water melon juice consumed over a period of seven days helps one to detoxify.

As it’s a low-glycemic fruit, anyone can consume the fruit. Diabetics should take it only on doctors’ recommendation.
