More Watermelon for Everyone . . .

I've been going to my chiropractor since June and they recently started sending out a newsletter. There was something in the newsletter that caught my eye and that I wanted to share with everyone about watermelons.

Like berries, watermelon is loaded with phytochemicals, including lycopene, beta-carotene and citrulline. When citrulline is consumed it is converted to arginine. Arginine is an amino acid that has beneficial effects on the heart and circulatory system, as well as the immune system. Arginine boosts nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels, leading to another beneficial side benefit of watermelon . . . a Viagra-like effect without the hazards of a toxic drug.

Can't get Viagra - eat a watermelon slice. hahaha.
