     Watermelon Juice   

WATERMELON JUICE

Traditionally Used For:

Bladder Problems Constipation
Digestive Tonic Kidney Problems
Skin Disorders  

A Good Source Of:

Vitamin A B Complex Vitamin C

Freshness Test:

Put your finger into the bottom of the melon where the vine was attached. You should be able to push slightly inwards and when released, the melon should rebound.

Important:

Melons are best drunk by themselves. Therefore, do not combine with other fruits, melons or vegetables.

General:

Most of the nutrition from a melon is inside its rind. Therefore, you definitely want to juice the rind and as such, try to get organic melons when possible.

I must admit, I don't enjoy the taste of watermelon juice as much as I enjoy cantaloupe juice.
