8. Diuretic properties
Some people use diuretics to help their bodies get rid of excess water and salt. This can be useful for people with kidney problems, high blood pressure, and other conditions.
A study conducted in 2014 on rats showed that the diuretic effect of watermelon can be as effective as the effect of furosemide, a well-known diuretic. This can make a natural choice for people with excess fluid. Never stop taking a prescription diuretic without talking to your doctor.
