Nutrition

  • ​​Hydrate for health! We all know that drinking more fluids is important for our health but its not always easy to do. Slushies are an easy and fun way to hydrate. They might also provide some relief if you have nausea or a dry mouth. Or you need to rehydrate when experiencing vomiting or diarrhea. Experiment with different types of fruits to find your new favourite.    
  • Fruit benefits. Adding a colourful variety of fruits to your diet is an easy way to enhance your health. The watermelon in this recipe provides a good dose of vitamins A and C plus the minerals, potassium, and magnesium. Its also packed with health protective plant compounds like carotenoids, lycopene and cucurbitacin E. Need to follow a low fibre diet? Watermelon is okay. One cup contains less than 1 gram of fibre.
