Advice

For the watermelon diet to be beneficial and fun, it's important to choose high-quality fruits, as this is the basis of the diet on which your mental health and well-being depend.

  • Do not grab the first watermelons, because there are many early fruits in the seasonnitrate, this also applies to very large fruits (over 12 kg).
  • You can't buy fruit with "lined" bins, for us, spoiled fruit can be cut off and it's okay, but the bacteria in the juicy pulp of a watermelon spread too quickly and can be very dangerous.
  • Do not take the fruits that are meager, because they contain few beneficial vitamins and sugars, which have had a long time to decompose.
