About One fourth of watermelon
One-fourth of a watermelon is a refreshing and hydrating fruit portion, typically weighing around 3-4 pounds depending on the melon’s size. Watermelons, believed to have originated in Africa, are a staple of summer cuisine and often enjoyed in diverse dishes or simply as a sweet snack. This portion of watermelon provides essential nutrients, including vitamin C, vitamin A, and potassium, while being rich in antioxidants like lycopene, which supports heart health and may have cancer-fighting properties. Its high water content (over 90%) makes it excellent for hydration while being low in calories, with about 150-200 calories per quarter. However, its natural sugars contribute to a high glycemic index, making moderation important for those monitoring blood sugar levels. Watermelon is also fat-free and contains minimal protein and fiber, making it a light and satisfying snack that pairs well with other nutritious ingredients.
