Popular nutritionist reveals how to make maximum use of watermelon rind, the most powerful part for heart health

The white rind of watermelon, often discarded, is a nutritional powerhouse according to nutritionist Lovneet Batra. Rich in L-citrulline, which converts to nitric oxide, it significantly supports heart health by improving blood circulation and relaxing blood vessels. This edible part also offers fiber, vitamins C and B6, and vitamin A precursors, contributing to better digestion, immunity, and overall well-being.
