Watermelon vs. Viagra

Looks like I was on to something even more news worthy with my July 4th post.

Dr. Bhimu Patil reports, “The more we study watermelons, the more we realize just how amazing a fruit it is in providing natural enhancers to the human body. Beneficial ingredients in watermelon and other fruits and vegetables are known as phyto-nutrients, naturally occurring compounds that are bioactive, or able to react with the human body to trigger healthy reactions. In watermelons, these include lycopene, beta carotene and the rising star among its phyto-nutrients - citrulline - whose beneficial functions are now being unraveled. Among them is the ability to relax blood vessels, much like Viagra does.”

My husband eats like a watermelon a day. Too bad I’m already knocked up! Watermelon season seems like prime time to conceive!
