Watermelon is packed with vitamin A, which supports skin and eye health, as well as antioxidants like lycopene, which are secondary plant substances that protect our cells from harmful free radicals.
Keep in mind when you're shopping at the grocery store that watermelons don't ripe further once they are picked.
