Nutritional Benefits

Cucumbers are a healthy addition to any diet:

• Vitamins & Minerals: They contain Vitamin K (important for blood clotting and bone health), Vitamin C, and potassium. The skin is particularly rich in nutrients and fiber.
• Antioxidants: Provide various antioxidants, including flavonoids and tannins, which help protect cells from damage.
• Fiber: Especially if consumed with the skin on, they offer dietary fiber that supports digestion.
