  1. watermelon

Watermelon is a representative summer fruit, composed of about 92% water, making it an excellent hydrating fruit. It contains vitamins A and C, magnesium, and other nutrients that help maintain the body's water balance and boost immunity. According to a study by Harvard University in the United States, watermelon is also rich in antioxidants like lycopene, which is beneficial for cardiovascular health.

 

2. Cucumber

Cucumbers are composed of about 95% water, making them a food with high water content. They are low in calories and rich in nutrients such as vitamin K, vitamin C, and potassium, which help with hydration and nutritional supplementation. According to health data from Seoul National University Hospital, cucumbers are also beneficial for relieving summer thirst and maintaining skin health.

3. Coconut Water

Coconut water is a natural electrolyte beverage, rich in electrolytes, making it highly effective for replenishing fluids and electrolytes after exercise. It contains electrolytes such as potassium, sodium, and magnesium, which help maintain the body's fluid balance. According to research from the Mayo Clinic in the United States, coconut water plays a role in quickly rehydrating the body with a refreshing taste.

 

4. Salary

Celery is composed of about 95% water and is popular as a diet food due to its low calorie content.
