Do you like watermelons? If you live in a climate with high humidity, you should try to eat more watermelons – they can make a delicious breakfast or snack to cool you off. As a Holistic Health and Nutrition Counselor, I sometimes recommend my clients a one-day water melon detox which consists of eating only water melons and rye bread.
Here are at least 20 reasons to start eating watermelons on a regular basis:
I. As a natural diuretic food, watermelon increases urination and detox the system by flushing toxins from the body. It is very beneficial for
weight loss,
high blood pressure,
PMS symptoms, such as bloating and water retention.
II. Watermelon is a good source of
– Vitamin C, beta-carotene and vitamin A to
boost your immune system,
lower cancer risk,
reduce inflammation,
prevent heart attack;
— Vitamin A and beta carotene also might help
to reduce inflammation and
improve eye site;
– Lycopene
to protect from sun burn,
reduce skin cancer risk,
prevent heart disease;
–B1 to
produce more energy;
– B6 to
improve mood and memory;
reduce bloating and breast pain – PMS symptoms;
–B6 and Magnesium to
prevent kidney formation;
– Potassium to help
reduce blemishes, dark circles around the eyes and
fatigue,
lower blood pressure,
promote thinking and alertness,
manage headaches and migraines,
aid faster healing of cuts, bruises and other injuries.
Don’t forget to use a watermelon juice as a facial to rejuvenate and nourish your skin.
Let us incorporate more watermelons into our diet if we want to feel and look fabulous. Bon Appetit!

I have noticed that when I eat a lot of watermelon I feel really good. There was one summer when I ate mostly watermelon for the whole summer and it was great. Watermelon is the best thing to eat when you are thirsty. I knew about the lycopene that makes tomato, water melon and red grapefruit red.
I whole heartedly agree. A watermelon juice day is a great way to clear and clean up digestive issues as well. Enjoying your blog.

I agree with this article. I am into fruits and vegetables lately and I have been feeling good since I use to practice it. And surely, this watermelon thing will be my next priority.
A lot of people that stumble across the fact that they have High Blood Pressure, do not realise that there are alternatives to medication. My mom has a blood presser since 3 years. She has to take some tablates regularly! I will suggest her to take some tips from here. I am sure, it will help to her! Thank you very much for giving very diamagnetic tips to us.
