About Small cucumbers
Small cucumbers, often referred to as Persian or baby cucumbers, are crisp, seedless, and subtly sweet, making them a popular choice in salads, snacks, and Mediterranean or Middle Eastern cuisine. Originating from regions with warm climates, these cucumbers are typically smaller than their standard counterparts, with thin, edible skins and a refreshing texture. Rich in hydration, small cucumbers are approximately 95% water, which supports proper digestion and helps maintain skin health. They are low in calories and contain essential nutrients, including vitamin K, vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants, which can aid in reducing inflammation and supporting heart health. Their high fiber content promotes gut health, while natural compounds like flavonoids may contribute to overall wellness. With no fat and minimal sodium, they are a healthy, versatile option for weight management, though individuals watching their sugar intake should note they contain small amounts of natural sugar.
