Yes, I have some watermelon left over from my watermelon-ade, but I really wanted to share with you some little known information about watermelon. (P.S. I cut the watermelon with a heart shaped cookie cutter, so much cuter, don't you think?)
This watermelon with soy yoghurt and topped with granola is a great way to start your day! It tastes good and is light and hearty at the same time for one, but for another, it is packed with all sorts of things fabulous for your heart. Did you know that watermelon contains lycopene?
Lycopene is (in short) an antioxidant that helps fight heart disease and many kinds of cancer. And my friends, watermelon contains a higher concentration of lycopene than found in any other fruits and vegetables!
Watermelon also contains high levels of vitamins A, C, and B6.
Who knew watermelon was such a super food?
Oh good! I love watermelon and I will now make sure to eat it more often!
Lycopene is a great food supplement but i usually take lycopene from natural food sources like tomato. `
