Cucumber – the healthiest vegetable of the season

It’s not surprising, because cucumber is not only delicious but also has many health benefits. 

Why should we eat cucumber? We addressed this question to Sopio Puturidze endocrinologist of National Center of Surgery

Here are the health benefits of cucumber:

• It consists of 90% water. The vegetable is the best solution for people who often don't/can't consume water due to certain reasons.
• You can use it for dermatologic purposes, in particular as a facemask;
• Cucumber removes toxins from the organism and therefore it’s the best medicine for the function of the liver;
• It’s rich in A, B and C vitamins – extremely important for immunity and digestive processes;
• If you would like to maintain healthy, normal weight or lose extra weight, cucumber has to be in your nutrition;
• Cucumber contains mineral quartz  - a guarantee of healthy nails and shiny hair. 

Wish you health!
