Watermelon Season is my jam and super versatile. I will add it to my smoothies, juices, eat it whole, make watermelon gazpacho, or even poké bowls. Watermelon has some of the highest water content, around 92%, making it one of the most hydrating foods you can eat. This year try doing a 1 day watermelon fast to hydrate your skin and cleanse your kidneys. You can either eat watermelon whole and/or drink watermelon juice all day.
