About Sliced cucumber
Sliced cucumber is a refreshing, low-calorie food rich in hydration, as it is approximately 95% water. Native to South Asia but now enjoyed globally, cucumbers are a staple in cuisines ranging from Mediterranean to Asian. They are an excellent source of vitamin K, which supports bone health, and also provide small amounts of vitamin C and potassium. Their high water and fiber content promote digestion and help in maintaining hydration. Cucumbers are naturally low in fat, cholesterol, and sodium, making them a healthy addition to snacks, salads, and sandwiches. However, when paired with high-sodium dressings or dips, their health benefits can be offset. For maximum nutritional value, consume them with the peel intact, as it contains additional fiber and antioxidants. Sliced cucumbers’ cool, crisp texture makes them not only a versatile ingredient but also a refreshing way to boost overall wellness.
