Calories in Watermelon, seedless, flesh only
More than 90% water โ and the only major produce item that's also a vegetable in some countries
What makes watermelon so powerful?
Watermelon is around 92% water by weight, making it one of the most hydrating whole foods that still delivers real nutrition, unlike plain water โ its electrolyte content, notably potassium, is part of why it's a popular post-exercise food. Botanically, watermelon belongs to the cucumber and squash family, and in several countries, including parts of China, the rind is cooked and eaten as a vegetable, often pickled or stir-fried, rather than discarded. Watermelon's flesh also contains citrulline, an amino acid the body converts to arginine, which supports blood vessel dilation, and the compound is concentrated even more in the white rind than in the red flesh.
Don't toss the white rind โ it can be pickled, stir-fried, or blended into a smoothie, and it's where citrulline concentration is highest. Watermelon is best served well-chilled, which most people find enhances perceived sweetness.
