Ever been duped into buying the branVitamin Water? I’m not hating because I know a lot of people out their like them, however; real vitamin water can be found in watermelon which is composed of about 90-92% water weight.

 

As stated by the National Watermelon Promotion Board, watermelon has a higher lycopene content than some other fruits that previously claimed to be the main source of Lycopene, typically found in red vegetables and fruits. Think! Tomatoes.

Why is it good for you?
Lycopene + Antioxidants + Vitamin A + Vitamin C + Potassium + Vitamin B6

Fun fact: Vitamin B6 from watermelon to work as produces antibodies and the immune system. Antibody is needed to fight many diseases. In addition Vitamin B6 is also helpful to maintain normal nerve function and form red blood cells. The body uses it to help break down proteins. So, if you consume more protein, then you will need more vitamin B6. Then it add the watermelon in your diet menu.man
