Amazing Analgesic Effect of Watermelon

Amazing Analgesic Effect of Watermelon

 

Watermelon juice, which is high in l-citrulline and amino acids, can help to relieve muscle stiffness. L-citrulline, an amino acid found in watermelons, cucumbers, some pumpkins, and other melons, has been shown in multiple studies to reduce muscular pain.

Researchers from the Polytechnic University of Cartagena gave 500 ml of natural watermelon juice with 1.17 g of l-citrulline, watermelon juice with an additional 4.83 g of l-citrulline, and a placebo to seven college athletes with an average age of 22.7.

According to the test results, the three beverages indicated above had no effect on the experimenters' heart rates, levels of physical fatigue, or exercise performance.

However, when compared to the placebo group, the two groups of experimenters who drank watermelon juice experienced much reduced muscle pain after 24 hours. The authors of the study claim that "watermelon juice helps after 24 hours recover heart rate and reduces muscle soreness."
