Do you swallow your Watermelon seeds? You need this information asap!

Hey Fitfam, have you been swallowing or throwing away your watermelon seeds when eating the fruits?
 Watermelon
Well, in case you don’t know, it is a way of reducing the nutritional value of this fruit.
Remember how as a child  you would swallow a watermelon seed and people would scare you with the thought of a watermelon tree growing inside you?
It is so true that we all hate it when a watermelon seed suddenly turns up and interferes with the true flavor of the fruit
The truth of these seeds may come to you by surprise as they are a combination of delicious and healthy.
Let me shock you, these watermelon seeds are nutrients dense; they are a rich source of proteins, vitamins, omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids, magnesium, zinc, copper, potassium and more.
They are good for the skin, as they prevent the outbreak of acne, moisturizes your skin, prevents dullness and prevents early signs of aging as well.
Also good for hair;Contains Protein, Iron and Magnesium, and Copper. While protein boosts hair growth, magnesium prevents split ends and breakage. Copper boosts melanin production which keeps your hair silky and vibrant.
Controls your sugar level; The primary concern of diabetes patients is controlling blood sugar levels and watermelon seeds are a delicious and healthy way of going about it.
Energy booster; One cup of watermelon seeds give your metabolism the kick it needs and nourishes your body with essential nutrients as well
Prevents osteoporosis; Eating dried watermelon seeds regularly can prevent Osteoporosis, a condition of weak bones and low bone density which increases the risk of fractures
So, my dear people stop having a second thought about your watermelon seeds, all you need to do is dry and roast them and voila!  your snack is ready.
