It's watermelon time, gentlemen!

September is the best time to enjoy a huge and tasty berry called watermelon. At this time they are especially juicy, even more striped and already real, without chemicals.

In addition to the fact that a fragrant piece of watermelon brings aesthetic and taste pleasure, it is also very healthy. 2-3 hours before a watermelon meal, experts recommend giving up salty foods, since salt retains fluid in the body. You will have to endure the same amount of time after the feast is over. In addition, a juicy watermelon can become an extra burden for a diseased heart and cause swelling. Those who suffer from chronic intestinal diseases should not indulge in watermelon - it can cause bloating. Pregnant women suffering from edema in the last trimester, and diabetics should avoid watermelon altogether.

Magnesium storehouse

In September, you can add variety to your diet by safely giving up magnesium-rich legumes, nuts and bran bread. Just 150 grams of watermelon will be enough to satisfy a healthy person’s daily need for this microelement. Therefore, people with arterial hypertension definitely need to have watermelon in the refrigerator. In addition, it removes cholesterol from the body well, which is also important for cardiovascular diseases.

Kidney filter

With the help of berries you can cleanse the kidneys of stones and salts. To do this, you need to stock up on watermelons and rye bread. You will eat these products for a whole week. Watermelon will become both food and drink for you, and you should eat bread only when you are very hungry. Such a diet can cause weakness and heart pain. The urine may become cloudy due to the release of sand from the kidneys. These organs work hard in the evening. Thus, to increase blood flow and dilate the urinary tract, you need to take a bath and eat large quantities of watermelon.

The heat will expand the ureters, and the berry will give a powerful acceleration to the sand and pebbles. If the stones come off slowly, not immediately, then you can cleanse yourself within 2-3 weeks. If you prefer to eat without dieting, just eat up to 2 kilograms of watermelon medicine per day. For variety, you can drink watermelon juice - for 2 glasses of juice, 1 teaspoon of honey.
