Nothing says summer quite like a juicy slice of watermelon. This refreshing fruit is about 92% water, making it a great way to stay hydrated during hot summer days. Watermelon also provides vitamin C to support immune health, vitamin A for healthy vision and skin and lycopene, an antioxidant that gives watermelon its vibrant red color.
Did you know? Watermelon has been enjoyed for more than 4,000 years. Seeds and paintings of watermelons have been discovered in ancient Egyptian tombs.
