You might think of watermelon as only a summertime treat, but this fruit is packed with immune-boosting benefits that could help keep you healthy all year long. Like many fruits, watermelon is loaded with the vitamins, minerals, and nutrients your body craves – but it gets even better. Watermelon is considered a super food due to its high levels of lycopene.¹

Lycopene is the pigment that gives red and pink fruits their distinct color, like tomatoes, watermelons, and pink grapefruit. It’s also a powerful antioxidant that provides several health-building benefits, like reducing respiratory inflammation, promoting heart health, and protecting against certain cancers, according to recent studies.²
