Russia's Rx For Superior Health!

                      Eat The Russian Fruit For Better Health! 

When one thinks of the foods that are most popular in
Russia, what foods come to mind?
Caviar
Borsch
A salad of cucumber, tomatoes and dill.
Plov or Pilaf
And Watermelon.
Watermelon?
Yes, we were shocked as well, but apparently many Russians
enjoy the juicy Summertime treat even more than Americans
do. And if you, like the Russians- enjoy a slice or two of this delectable
fruit, look below and see how it (watermelon) can improve
your health.

The Watermelon Rxs:
a) Stronger Bones- The red interior of the fruit is called Lycopene,
a powerful antioxidant that builds and keeps bones strong.
b) Sun Protection- Tired of wasting money on sunscreen?
Watermelon, like other red fruits and veggies (tomatoes and red bell peppers) 

protect your skin against the Sun's harmful rays.
c) A Sleep Aid- Need a natural sleeping pill? Have a slice of watermelon 

about an hr. or two before bed.
d) A Sex Aid- Guys want to save money and possibly avoid the
side effects of Viagra and Cialis? Start eating up some watermelon.
It (watermelon) increases the body's production of arginine, an amino 

acid that boosts circulation, which improves arousal. And arginine also 
increases nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels, and
what Viagra does. And lastly, arginine can also improve heart health 

and lower blood pressure. 
e) Beautiful Skin- Drinking 6 to 10 glasses of water a day may not
be possible for most of us, and it can also be dangerous. But, eating more 

fruits and vegetables like watermelon and cucumbers that contain
ample amounts of water is possible. Not only will the water from the fruit
keep you hydrated, but it keeps your skin hydrated as well. 

And hydrated skin looks better and more youthful.

That's it- 5 tips from our friends in Russia, on the healthful benefits 

of eating and juicing more watermelon.
One more thing...Better hurry, watermelon will be out of season here in
the U.S. and that means higher prices.

Good Luck!
