Good morning guys!

Because I'm such a big devourer of watermelons I finally studied some facts about that delicious fruit. Because it's summer - season for watermelons - I'm pretty sure that most of people are now devourer of watermelons too! 😋😄 So I wanna present you some good benefits from eating that fruit! 😊🍉


Did you know that watermelon has many nutrients? About one cup (154g) of that fruit have only (!) 46 calories and contains vitamins like:

• Vitamin C (21% of the RDI)
• Vitamin A (18% of the RDI)
• Potassium (5% of the RDI)
• Magnesium (4% of the RDI)
• Vitamins B1, B5 and B6 (3% of the RDI)

Watermelon has a lot of carotenoids, therein beta-carotene (which our body converts that into vitamin A), lycopene which belong to carotenoids but it's not getting converted into vitamin A and potassium. It is a strong antioxidant which gives a red colour for plants food such as watermelon and tomatoes.
