This week i will be starting a series on watermelon:
Despite popular belief that watermelon is made up of only water and sugar, watermelon is actually considered a nutrient dense food, a food that provides a high amount of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants for a low amount of calories. It also helps in loss of weight.
Its redness indicates its high levels in beta-carotene,you can also blend its seeds for extra zinc and vitamine E.
When purchasing this fruit, choose watermelons that feels heavy for its size and makes a hollow sound when tapped.
PREPARATION: Wash well, Cut out the wedge from the whole fruit and cut out the flesh away from the rind. chop to fit.
LIVE HEALTHY
