Melon belts, regardless of variety, solve many health problems: hydrate, vitaminize, strengthen the immune system, and their effects do not stop here, says Eugen Giurgiu, PhD in biochemistry, with skills in phytotherapy and nutrition nutrition in the study: “Cure with melons overcomes the serious diseases of this century of speed! ”.
Watermelon, a powerful detoxifier
The core of this juicy fruit is a cocktail of water (over 90 percent), natural sugars and many nutrients, including enzymes, organic acids, lycopene (a substance famous for its antioxidant effect and immune stimulant). A cure with this fruit, for at least ten days a month, helps to detoxify the body. Therefore, watermelon is recommended for people who have undergone long-term drug treatment, but also for people who have a marked body of wear and tear or who have eaten unhealthy foods.
It has anti-stress effects
Due to the nutrients in its composition: vitamins (A, B1, B6, C), mineral salts (calcium-11 mg, potassium-172 mg, magnesium-15 mg, phosphorus-17 mg) and amino acids, a cure with watermelon fights anxiety , stress and panic attack. Two or three slices of watermelon eaten in the morning with a busy schedule have a relaxing effect. According to an American study, people who eat watermelon for breakfast focus more easily on what they need to do and set better priorities.
Natural remedy for kidneys
In traditional medicine, a cure with tea prepared by boiling two teaspoons of watermelon seeds in a cup of water for 30 minutes is a natural remedy for kidney disease and gallbladder. Equally effective is a 30-day cure with watermelon, which stimulates the activity of the kidneys, having laxative effects. Therefore, the melon diet helps people suffering from constipation, arthritis or gout.
