Is this luscious juicy piece of watermelon fattening?

watermelon is not fattening

Let me put your mind to rest at once, watermelons are not fattening.

Watermelon is a fruit rich in water content (90% water). It is highly beneficial for health. It helps increase the water content in our body, it contains necessary minerals like potassium and is a great source of vitamin C and vitamin A.

Watermelon also provides immediate energy to the body in the form of glucose, just like any other fruit. The glucose in fruits is in the natural form of fructose. You need have no concerns about the fattening value of glucose or sweetness present in fruits.

Stop calorie counting it is a useless and myth laden method of weight calculation. For examples

1 cup of milk shake made from sugar will contain 190 calories

1 cup of pure fresh fruit juice may contain 210 calories

Which do you think is fattening?

The milk shake of course. I will tell you why.

Why do we put on fat?

We become fat because we put on fat on several areas of our body, mostly the thighs, buttocks, mid section, arms, legs and chin.

What is fat? It is most waste material which has been stored for disposal later.

Why is it stored? Because the body did not get enough time to dispose it or because it was not digestible.

Diary products are not digestible, they will get stored as waste. Meat and non-vegetarian food is toxic to say the least, they are stored as waste in our body. The various fries, bakes and other cooked food contains 80% waste. It is stored for disposal.

Raw fruits and vegetables contain nothing which cannot be digested. They are simplest foods to break down. Nutrition is easily extracted from fruits and vegetables, it is tend circulated to all parts of the body due to the high water content in these foods.

There is no toxic waste deposited in any part of your body when you eat raw fruits and vegetables, whatever idiotic numbers are shown in the calorie chart have no meaning when it comes to consuming these foods.

Water melon has high calories but it is not fattening

That's correct. Calories have nothing to do with weight gain. It just another foolishness of the modern day dietician. You need to look at the type of food not the calories in the food.

Use the below criteria to judge the fattening value of a food.

  • Is the food processed (ex Soft drinks Chips, sausages or bakery items)
  • Is the food non-vegetarian (high in fat content, low in fiber)
  • Is the food a diary product (most toxic food on earth next only to meat)
  • Is the food cooked in oil (fried food is toxic)
  • Is the food boiled (less toxic but still not 100% healthy)

If your food meets any of the criteria above, then it is fattening. Forget the calories in these foods, eat them and you will gain weight if don't detoxify your system by fasting or eating fruits in the morning.

Raw fruits and vegetables are never fattening. Eat as much as you want and you won't become fat. Try it. The reason are simple

  • Raw food is the simplest to digest
  • Lot of energy is available from the glucose present in the raw food
  • This energy is used for detoxification and weight reduction
  • High water content helps flush toxins
  • High calorific value ensures lot of free energy, you will fresh throughout

Don't confuse calories with bad food. Bad food is fattening, raw food is good food and it is not fattening. Just remember a simple truth which I am sure you are aware of yourself
