Are you looking for a natural way to combat the heat? Do you know that there is a Solution for it that will assist you in fighting against the heat as well as keeping your teeth clean? The savior is a fruit, the name of the fruit is “Watermelon.”  

Watermelon has 92% water which helps the body retain more water levels during the summer.

Watermelon can cool down your body temperature more consistently during summer than other fruits.

Why is watermelon special?

Is this fruit preferred more for its taste? No. Apart from the taste, It only has one distinctive feature, to be popular among the people, and it is nothing but this delicious fruit that encompasses less sugar. A recent study shows that 100 grams of watermelon have only 6.2 grams of sugar. Apart from less sugar content, it has other ingredients which are helpful to your body’s health. They are listed below:

  1. Carbohydrates
  2.         Vitamin A
  3.         Vitamin C
  4.         Vitamin B-6
  5.         Iron
  6.         Calcium
  7.         Fibre’s
  8.         Copper

The above nutritional compounds show that watermelon is a rich source of vitamins and minerals. Since it contains fiber Substance, it can be highly beneficial to your Guilt health.

Watermelon has another important antioxidant content known as lycopene which will predominantly increase your bone health.  

Will consuming watermelon help your oral health?

Yes, watermelon can improve your dental health; here are some benefits of consuming watermelon:

  •  Enhance saliva production
  •  Remove debris
  •  Whitens the stained teeth
  •   Provides Gum protection
  •   Shield your lips

1) Enhance saliva production

As mentioned earlier, watermelon has some advantages apart from having the taste. The “USP” is it contains 90% of water and it is fibrous compounded fruit, which will induce salivary glands to produce more saliva. Therefore, watermelon is not only helpful in hydration, but It also aids in increasing saliva flow as well. Finally, it will result in eliminating bad bacteria from your mouth.

2) Whitens the stained teeth

Watermelon contains malic acid, which is known for its bleaching properties. Just when you think watermelon is loaded with impeccable quality to increase saliva flow, it surprises you with its ability to remove the stain, thanks to the malic acid. It starts scrubbing the tooth surface; therefore, any stain particles or discoloration agents are removed naturally.

3) Provides Gum protection

Watermelon is known for its rich vitamin particles and minerals; the Vitamin C present in this fruit will strengthen the connective tissues in gums. It does not stop here; it supports slowing down the progress of getting plaque build-up. Hence this tasty fruit protects your gum tissue from bacterial invasion.

4) Shield your lips

We are likely to make an eye-opening statement that oral care will also include lip protection; during the summer, there is a chance of getting lip dryness, and split lips but the tremendous amount of hydration Substance present in watermelon will help your lips from getting dried and chapped.

Bottom line

Finally, we noted that by consuming watermelon during summer, apart from enjoying the taste of the fruit, you will also enjoy the oral benefits. Watermelon has less sugar hence diabetic patients can also have this fruit during the summer.
