Full Readout The health benefits of watermelon seeds and
their uses.
1. Watermelon seeds come from the citrullus lanatus, a vine like plant originally from
West Africa. These have some wonderful health benefits for the human body.
2. They contain a high amount of Niacin, also known as Vitamin B3. This lowers the risk
of heart disease and can boost the mood making you feel happier.
3. The seeds can be eaten fresh from the fruit or you can purchase them dried in health food
stores. Seeds are often steeped in hot water to make watermelon seed tea.
4. If you wish to grow stronger and healthier hair then eating these seeds can help. They
are rich in iron, magnesium and copper which helps to build follicles that are less likely
to break or get damaged. 5. Drinking watermelon seed tea or eating
the seeds supplies the body with lots of amino acids such as tryptophan, arginine, glutamic
acid and lysine. These boost the metabolism and give you lots of energy.
6. If you exercise regularly then eating nutritious seeds and nuts can help. They provide raw
materials that the body can use to make energy in the mitochondria.
7. These seeds protect the body against osteoporosis and strengthen the bones and joints. They
are very high in minerals to support strong connective tissues.
8. Watermelon seed tea can act as a diuretic, making you urinate more often. This helps
to flush harmful bacteria from the urinary tract and bladder.
9. The minerals in the seeds also help to reduce insulin resistance in the body. This
helps to keep blood sugars under control. 10. You can also purchase watermelon seed
oil from health food stores. This is also known as Ootonga Oil or Kalahari Oil. You
can apply this to the skin to improve skin health as it contains lots of linoleic acids.
11. The seed oil can also be applied to the hair as a conditioner. This helps to protect
the hair from external damage and split ends. 12. When making watermelon seed tea be sure
to try adding a little cinnamon and lemon juice. This is an excellent drink for improving
blood flow around the body, and balancing blood pressure.
13. Simply crush 3 tablespoons of the seeds in a pestle and mortar, steep for 10 minutes
in hot water and then add any extras to make your wonderful herbal tea. You can also refrigerate
this and use as a cold drink throughout the day.
14. Drinking this reduces inflammation from aching joints, back pain, toothache, menstrual
cramps and many more. 15. The seeds help to reduce water retention
in the body, which takes pressure off the joints and soft tissues. This is very helpful
for older people. 16. As they help improve blood flow, they
can reduce sexual disorders such as impotence. Watermelon juice from the fruit is often mixed
with ginger to treat this disorder in men, and improve libido in women.
17. The magnesium in these seeds can help to protect the heart and cardiovascular system.
This is excellent for lowering the risk of heart disease.
18. Magnesium also helps you to drift off and have a higher quality of sleep. Sleep
is vitally important for brain health, cognition and memory.
19. You can also bake the seeds into low carb breads as they are high in fibre and natural
fats. We recommend doing this if you are following a keto diet.
20. You can also place the seeds in water and allow them to sprout. This makes them
have a higher protein content and provides more bioavailable nutrients to the body.

Many people do not realise that you can eat the seeds from within the watermelon. Instead
of spitting these out, consider eating them for some excellent health benefits. They are
rich in amino acids and minerals especially which are used for different functions in
the body. In particular these seeds can help the hair to grow stronger and healthier. They
are often used as "boiled watermelon seed tea" as this is an effective way to enjoy
