Did you eat a lot of watermelon this summer? I wish I could say I had—Though it’s one of my favorites, I tend to talk myself out of buying it because it’s so darn heavy (if I had a car, this would not be a problem) and pre-cut melon skeeves me out a little.
However, there are plenty of reasons it’s worth the haul. Aside from the fact that it’s filling, delicious, and rich in nutrients, watermelon may also help lower blood pressure, according to a recent pilot study. You can read more about this in a piece I wrote for FYI Living.

i love eating watermelon…and i love going pee every 10 minutes afterward haha. it’s a super fruit for sure 🙂
xoxo <3
haha that is hilarious! super fruit is right!
I looove watermelon! And agreed, hate that it’s so ginormous and heavy. Fairway sells really big slices that are a bit more manageable to carry, so I’ve been eating quite a bit lately!
Ginormous is the perfect word for it!
