About Cup of watermelon
Cup of watermelon is a refreshing, hydrating snack rich in essential nutrients. Originating from Africa and widely celebrated in global cuisines, watermelon is a natural source of vitamins and antioxidants. A typical serving is packed with vitamin C, vitamin A, and lycopene, an antioxidant linked to heart health and reduced inflammation. Its high water content—about 92%—makes it an excellent choice for hydration and controlling calorie intake, with just around 46 calories per cup. Watermelon also delivers potassium, supporting muscle function and electrolyte balance. While low in fat and sodium, its natural sweetness comes with natural sugars, which should be considered for those monitoring blood sugar levels. Delicious on its own or added to fruit salads and smoothie bowls, a cup of watermelon combines great taste with remarkable health benefits for a guilt-free treat.
