The surprising effect of the bitter and tasteless 'cucumber'... Reasons to eat cucumbers this summer

I really like cucumbers.

What do you mean it tastes bad and is disgusting!!!

How delicious cucumbers are~~~

Cucumber is a must for cold noodles, soybean noodle soup, and summer kimbap!!!

Haha

But my younger sister... I wonder if she's allergic to cucumbers, she also dislikes the smell of cucumbers.

Even if you can't see the cucumber, accurately identify that it contains cucumber~~

Fortunately, my son seems to resemble me, the cucumber killer~

When I peel the cucumber, one cucumber disappears completely before I even eat my rice...

My daughter is barely willing to eat just one.

Cucumber! Sharing because it has healthy benefits~~~

[Dailyan = Reporter Lee Jeong-hee] Cucumbers are well known for their distinctive taste, which tends to be polarizing. However, during the summer, a season when health and beauty are both important, cucumbers are also a versatile ingredient.

Cucumbers on summer days can be called a万能 fixer because they can simultaneously address health and beauty concerns during the summer due to their overwhelming water content and nutritional components.

It also contains potassium, which promotes diuretic action, helping to eliminate waste products, sodium, and heavy metals from the body during this process.

Compared to satiety, it has low calories and contains abundant dietary fiber, making it suitable for suppressing hunger during weight loss and preventing constipation.

In addition, a large amount of vitamin C can help with fatigue recovery and skin beautification. Furthermore, placing cucumber on inflamed skin as an emergency treatment can also have a soothing effect.

Meanwhile, there are no specific side effects associated with cucumber consumption, but caution should be exercised as various abnormal symptoms may occur after intake if there is an allergy. Additionally, if digestive function is weak, it may cause abdominal pain, so excessive consumption should be avoided.
