Watermelons are one of the most favorite seasonal fruits among Russians.
When the melon season comes, many people have fruit on their table every day.
Let's figure out whether watermelons are beneficial or whether you shouldn't get carried away with them every day.
Can you eat watermelon every day
Let's start with the fact that watermelon is more than 90% water. Therefore, in the summer heat, this berry can protect the body from dehydration.
Despite its sweetness, watermelon is one of the lowest calorie fruits when compared to other seasonal fruits.
The berry is also rich in vitamins. It contains vitamins A, C and group B, as well as potassium and magnesium. Moreover, the first two vitamins in watermelon contain up to one fifth of the daily requirement.
Due to the potassium content, watermelon is useful for people with cardiovascular diseases. However, those with high potassium levels in the blood are advised to limit their consumption of the berry to 150-200 grams per day.
Watermelon may pose a risk to people with diabetes, who are advised to consult their doctors before eating it.
