I recently enjoyed a chunk of Water Melon the other day and it made me feel so Refreshed & Revigorated that I decided to see if it has any Good Healing Benefits as well as Nutritional Benefits so I did the Quick Google and got this:

“Vitamin C strengthens your immune system and helps the body absorb iron, while vitamin A is crucial for skin and eye health. Watermelon is also rich in potassium, which works to lower blood pressure and supports nerve functioning, and vitamin B6, which helps the body break down the proteins that you eat and also boosts the immune system and nerve function.”
“Lycopene is a natural compound found in watermelon and other fruits and vegetables that has antioxidant properties. Also,consuming foods with lycopene may reduce your risk for heart disease and stroke. ”
“Watermelon is also brimming with nutrients that support our overall eye health and may help prevent age-related vision disorders.”
“Getting a variety of essential vitamins and minerals is one key to a strong immune system, and watermelon fits the bill.”
“The water and vitamins A, B6, and C in watermelon help your skin stay soft, smooth, and supple. Vitamin C boosts collagen production, which improves skin elasticity and blood flow to the skin.”
