Watermelon seeds are healthy

We carefully pluck all the seeds from our watermelon, while those seeds are actually healthy. You should know this before eating the seeds.

You should not eat the seeds immediately You will have to keep picking, because you cannot eat the watermelon seeds directly. You must first let the seeds germinate, peel and dry.

Nutrients
When the seeds are peeled, they are white instead of black. Watermelon seeds are a source of protein, B vitamins and magnesium. The taste can best be compared with the taste of sunflower seeds, only watermelon seeds are a bit thinner. In comparison, watermelon seeds contain many nutrients. You can eat the seeds separately, or mix them with your salad or yogurt.
