Stay Well Hydrated with Watermelon
Staying well-hydrated is especially important during the summer months.
In addition to normal body functions, higher temperatures draw more water through perspiration, so consciously replacing your fluid content becomes essential for overall health.
What many people don’t realize is that beverages aren’t the only way to hydrate your body.
In fact, water-dense foods such as watermelon can also boost your hydration.
Sweetly flavored, low-calorie watermelon is 92 percent water and offers several nutrients along with the cancer-fighting antioxidant lycopene.
And honestly, I’m SO happy that watermelon season is back in full force.

There’s always next year, Amy! I remember growing watermelon with my dad (as well as a boatload of squash)… unfortunately our yard has too much shade to grow much of anything :/ Enjoy the watermelon lemonade…. it’s addicting in the best way 🙂
This looks so yummy and refreshing! Perfect for summer 🙂
