Watermelon Juice!

A freshly blended half a medium sized watermelon will supercharge your energy levels and carry you all the way to lunch.  For a period of several years I ate nothing but blended watermelon until noon and I felt great and lost weight without being hungry at all.  Now I do this seasonally about once a week - but I think this year I will do a lot more of it.  I highly recommend you try it.

This is so easy to do and is probably one of the healthiest things you can do for your body -especially men.  Watermelon is packed with lycopene (a powerful anti-oxidant with proven benefits for men's health) - but unlike other foods such as tomatoes which must be cooked for the lycopene to be accessible by your body, the lycopene in watermelon can be absorbed in its raw (uncooked) form.   

Watermelon also increases nitric oxide levels (promotes healthy blood vessels) and a host of other benefits.

Just Blend It Up!!

This really is an amazingly tasty!  You can easily down 2 quarts of this stuff - only drawback - it is 90% water so you'll need to think ahead if going on a long car ride, etc!  ENJOY!!

Creamy and Delicious!

Just cut the watermelon up in chunks and drop it into a blender - any blender - you don't need to add any water or ice.

You may need to push down on the watermelon chunks to get the blend going - do that safely.

You can of course drop in anything else you like (strawberries, blueberries, cranberries, etc.) but I really just prefer pure watermelon juice.
