About Half cucumber large
Half cucumber large is a refreshing, hydrating vegetable commonly associated with cuisines worldwide, including Mediterranean, Asian, and American dishes. With origins tracing back to South Asia, cucumbers are celebrated for their crisp texture and mild flavor. A large cucumber, sliced in half, contains a high water content—over 95%—making it an excellent choice for hydration. It's low in calories, with approximately 20 calories per half, and supplies small amounts of essential nutrients like vitamin K, vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants. Cucumbers are also rich in fiber, beneficial for digestion, particularly when consumed with the skin. They are naturally free of fat, cholesterol, and sodium, making them a heart-healthy option. However, they are low in protein and other macronutrients, so they are best paired with more nutrient-dense foods for balanced meals. Ideal in salads, smoothies, or as a snack, half cucumber large is a versatile and nutritious addition to any diet.
