When thinking of a healthy drink, one of the last things that may come to mind is cucumber water. After all, cucumber is a vegetable—not something you'd likely choose to spruce up your daily beverage game! But if you're trying to boost your hydration and wellness, you may want to consider picking up some cucumbers on your next trip to the market. This cool and refreshing veggie isn't simply for de-puffing your eyes or dipping into hummus.
I've since learned from Amy Goodson, MS, RD, CSSD, LD, a registered dietitian and certified specialist in sports dietetics who sits on our Medical Expert Board, that cucumbers are chock-full of silica, which offers many benefits for your skin. Cucumbers also contain vitamin B5, which can help treat acne.I've always been a fan of drinking lots of water throughout the day, but I'm not always good at refilling my glass—especially during a busy workday.
Some pretty common additions to cucumber water I discovered during my research include mint, lemon, and ginger. You can even go all-out and buy lime green straws and a mason jar mug to really jazz up your day.So many things that I eat and drink—from pasta to sauces to seltzer—bother my stomach, which results in unwanted, inevitable bloating.
