(MENAFN- AsiaNet News)

Cucumbers are healthy and hydrating due to their high water content. However, some people should avoid them completely. Eating cucumbers in winter can have side effects, here's what you need to know.

 

Cucumbers are rich in water, making them perfect for summer cooling and winter hydration. They are packed with Vitamin C, fiber, and potassium, supporting digestion, immunity, and overall wellness. Including cucumbers in your diet can provide refreshing nutrition and multiple health benefits year-round.

Rich in fiber, cucumbers may worsen gastric issues, indigestion, or bloating. Their cooling effect can aggravate symptoms, so it's best to avoid them if you have a cough, cold, or sore throat.

Cucumbers can trigger allergies, causing itching or swelling in some people. Being a natural diuretic, they increase urination. They may also lower blood pressure, so individuals with low BP should avoid consuming cucumbers to prevent dizziness or other related health issues.
