In hot summer, eating watermelon is a great pleasure. These days, although watermelons are on the market in all seasons, only in this season do people eat the most heartily. People love to eat watermelon not only to appreciate its delicious taste, but also because it can cool and quench their thirst, relieve summer heat and make people feel comfortable. First of all, watermelon pulp is 94% water, as well as sugar, vitamins, various amino acids and a small amount of inorganic salts, which can most effectively supplement the water and nutrition needed by the human body in high temperature season; Secondly, the intake of water and inorganic salts can be metabolized into urine, and can also take away excess heat to achieve the effect of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat and benefiting qi.
It should also be stated that watermelon is good, but it is always a cold product. If people with weak body, cold stomach and weak stomach are gluttonous, it is easy to cause abdominal pain and diarrhea. Not suitable for eating with greasy things; If watermelon is eaten with warm food or drink, cold and heat are incompatible and it is easy to make people vomit. Watermelon should be eaten as soon as possible after being cut, otherwise its sweet and juicy pulp will easily become an ideal "culture medium" for bacteria; When eating watermelons stored in the refrigerator, be sure to leave them at room temperature for a while before eating, so as not to damage your body.
