Watermelon Juice: About the Benefits

Nutritional Facts:
Watermelon contains more of the antioxidant lycopene than fresh tomatoes; one cup of watermelon has 1.5 times the lycopene as a raw tomato
L-citrulline, an amino acid in watermelon, seems to protect against muscle pain
Watermelon rind is edible and actually contains more of the amino acid citrulline than the pink flesh; citrulline is converted to arginine in your kidneys, which is important for heart and immune system health
New research showed citrulline and arginine supplements derived from watermelon extract lead to significant improvements in blood pressure and cardiac stress in obese study participants
Watermelon contains cucurbitacin E, or tripterpenoid, which blocks the activity of the pain and inflammation-causing enzyme cyclooxygenase — the same enzyme blocked by COX-2 inhibitor drugs
Never discard the seeds or rind when juicing. These contain a crazy amount of nutrients.
The rind alone contains tons of chlorella and more of the amino acids citrulline than the flesh of the watermelon.
