What should I look for when buying a watermelon?
Nutritionists advise going on such a diet inAugust or September, since this is the period when watermelons are ripe. Experts who took part in the program "Test Purchase" claim that after buying a watermelon, it is necessary to check it for nitrates. To do this, you need to put a piece of pulp in cool water. If the piece peels off after 40-50 seconds, it means that it contains nitrates. The pulp in water should always retain its shape. It is worth noting that it is best to buy a watermelon weighing 6-7 kg. If less, then it may be unripe. And if more, then 100% chemicals have been added to it. As a rule, this is done with a syringe. Wash the watermelon thoroughly. Otherwise, nausea may appear after eating this large berry. This is explained by the fact that the watermelon rind contains a large percentage of bacteria that destroy the human body. It is strictly forbidden to buy a cut watermelon! As statistics show, it is in the halves of watermelons that a huge number of microbes are contained. Moreover, watermelons can be carriers of various diseases. After the watermelon has already been purchased, you can begin to create a diet for 4 days, since you cannot limit your body in the consumption of other products that contain nutrients.
