Watermelon can help control high blood pressure. Potassium, magnesium and amino acids in watermelon fruit can simultaneously maintain healthy blood vessels and counteract sclerosis, which in turn ensures blood flow becomes smooth.
Watermelon also helps maintain proper electrolytes and acid-base balances in the body that help lower the risk of high blood pressure. According to a study by the faculty of Florida State University published in the American Journal of Hypertension explained that watermelon can significantly reduce blood pressure in individuals who are overweight, either at rest or under stress. If you suffer from high blood pressure, drink one glass of watermelon juice each day to keep your blood pressure under control.
