Nutritional values

This juice is high in pantothenic acid, also known as vitamin B5, which promotes the breakdown of fat and plays a role in the formation of fatty acids and cholesterol.

Melon and cucumber harmonize so well because botanically they belong to the same family, have a very similar consistency, and are both characterized by a very high water content.
