Medicinal Benefits

It is summer time. Let's cool with cucumber.

Cucumber is considered to be one of the healthiest food. The plant is a creeper and is widely cultivated in many parts of the world. It reduces heat in the body as it contains more than 90% of water in it.

Eating cucumbers keep the body hydrated and help eliminate toxins in the body due to the water content and the dietary fibers. Cucumbers form low calorie diet and are ideal for people who are looking for weight loss. Cucumbers are extensively used for skin and hair care. They are also used for reducing puffy eyes.

Cucumber peel is a very good source of dietary fiber that helps to reduce constipation. Digestive problems like heartburn, acidity, gastritis and even ulcer can be cured by daily consumption of cucumber or cucumber juice. Cucumbers are mainly eaten raw in salad or sandwiches or in the form of juice.

Scientific Name: Cucumis sativus
