Nothing is as refreshing as water melon, in the scorching heat in summers. The fruit is a big green ball of sweet pink water but with a lot of benefits. It is a rich source of Vitamin A (an antioxidant), Vitamin B which is acts a strong energy booster, Vitamin-C which helps in building immunity and Lycophene which is an antioxidant that has been found to be good in fighting cancer.
In addition to the fact that watermelon can be a very good hydrating liquid, it is also loading with minerals like potassium. Potassium helps replenish the electrolytes in the body, which is normally the first thing that you lose during summers irrespective of, if you are just staying at home, travelling to work or, spending time at the beach.
