1. Does watermelon help you lose weight?Watermelon can help you lose weight. Because watermelon does not contain fat, eating a moderate amount of watermelon will not cause obesity but will help lose weight. More than 90% of watermelon is water, and it has a diuretic effect. It can help digestion, eliminate edema, excrete excess water from the body, and allow the kidneys to maintain normal function. In addition, it has low calories. 100g of watermelon has only 31 calories. The calories in 1 jin of watermelon are almost equal to the calories in 4 liang of rice. If you can control the amount of watermelon you eat to around 250g, or about half a pound, it will help you lose weight. Moreover, when dieting to lose weight, eating watermelon can supplement the nutrients needed by the human body. 2. How to choose watermelon1. Observe the melon stem: If the melon stem is green, it means it is fresh. If the stem of the watermelon is dry and yellow, it means that the watermelon was picked too long ago. 2. Observe the size: choose a watermelon of appropriate size, not necessarily bigger. 3. Observe the rind: There will be a yellow area on the rind of the watermelon. This is because this area is sitting on the ground and cannot be exposed to the sun. The fewer melons in the yellow area, the better. If the melon has clear lines and a smooth and shiny skin, it is a good melon. 4. Observe the bottom of the melon: there will be a circle at the bottom. The smaller and more prominent the circle is, the sweeter the watermelon is. 5. Listen to the sound: Use your fingers to tap the surface of the watermelon. If the sound is tired and turbid, and there is vibration, it means it is ripe. |
