My favorite fruit is apple, and my favorite fruit juice is apple juice too. I like the taste and believe in the health value too, "An apple a day, keeps the doctor away". I drink apple juice almost every morning at breakfast time. I buy a basket of apples when I go grocery shopping too. What is your favorite fruit or fruit juice ?

I love watermelon! It's refreshing and tasty and it will cool you off on a nice hot day. Here are some nutritional benefits and health benefits of watermelon... Nutritional Benefits The water content in watermelon is extremely high at 92%. It is rich in beta-carotene, folic acid, vitamin C, vitamin B5 and smaller amounts of B1, B2, B3 and B6. This big fruit is a rich source of essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium and smaller amounts of copper, iron and zinc. As in tomatoes, watermelon is loaded with lycopene, the red carotenoid pigment that gives it the red color. This important anti-oxidant is powerful in neutralizing harmful free radicals in our body. Health Benefits Watermelon is basically very cleansing, alkalinizing, diuretic and mineralizing. It is very effective in promoting intestinal elimination, keeping the body free from toxic wastes. Its juice is easily digestible and are completely absorbed for all its minerals, providing much needed nutrients to the body. The alkalinizing effect maintains the acid-alkaline balance in the body, neutralizing the toxic condition of the body resulting from excessive intake of acid-forming foods. Drawing from the rich anti-oxidant and beta-carotene, the health effects of watermelon juice are immense. Asthma: The powerful anti-oxidant in watermelon reduces toxic matters in the body, that in turn reduces asthma attacks. Arthritis: The rich beta-carotene and vitamin C content in this big fruit do wonders in quenching inflammation that contributes to conditions like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. Bladder problems: Its cleansing and natural diuretic effect is totally healing for kidney and bladder problems Cholesterol: Watermelon juice is healthful in preventing cholesterol from clogging arteries and can increase HDL, the good cholesterol, reducing the risks of cardiovascular diseases. Constipation: Drink a big glass of watermelon juice. It is very effective in aiding the elimination of wastes. Consuming plenty of this red juice will do a lot of good. Fluid retention: Its diuretic action helps to eliminate excess fluids from the body, reducing water retention, especially for women during their monthly menstruation cycle and in pregnant women. Heart attack: The combination of folic acid and the other essential vitamins in this fruit plays an important role in reducing the risks of heart attacks, strokes and colon cancer. Itchiness: As watermelon juice cleanses the body of toxic wastes, it also greatly reduces itchiness that result from toxicity of acidosis. Prostate Cancer: Lycopene (from red watermelons) has been extensively researched for its anti-oxidant and cancer-preventing properties. It is reported to be especially protective against prostate cancer. Skin Blemish: Use watermelon externally by applying a small piece liberally on your face. Leave for ten minutes, then wash off with warm water, followed by a splash of cold water.

Hi there my friend Green line. My favorite fruits are grapefruit, cherries, strawberries and raspberries. I adore passion fruit too. I love to drink grapefruit juice and my second favorite is cranberry juice. The grapefruit juice has to be 100% pure and freshly squeezed is always a delight. I do enjoy drinking fruit smoothies like the one with strawberries and raspberries tastes perfect to me. Fruit is a healthy and delicious choice.

Hey greenline! My favorite fruit juice is orange juice! I also love grapefruit juice, but I am not allowed drink it because of one of the medications that I take. I am not a big apple juice fan, and I don't know why. I do love the taste, but I very rarely drink it! I love apples! My favorite fruit is canteloupes so that has nothing to do with the juices that I drink! lol

Hi Opal ! Nice to see you. Grapefruit juice tastes very good too. Yeah , may need to take the doctor's advice for some types of juices , I guess. For me, I cannot take coconut juice. That raises my blood pressure, and immediately become dizzy.
