SOME HEALTH INFO
Cucumbers are the number one fruit for beauty because a cucumber is made up of 95% water. Water is a key component in flushing out toxins from the body that cause wrinkly skin and other pigmentation defects. The reason we get sick is: Our bodies are exposed to substances in food, in the air and in the environment around us that pollute us internally and weaken our immune system. When the immune system is weak it is easy for unwanted bacteria to start deteriorating our health, slowly but surely. The water content in the cucumber combined with the minerals and nutrients cleans the body to remove these unwanted toxins.
