Nutritional Note: Red Seedless Watermelons work best for this recipe
Watermelon is very cleansing, alkalinizing, diuretic and mineralizing
It is cooling in our tropical weather and is excellent for flushing out the kidney and gall bladder
Replace traditional iodized table salt with pure Himalayan pink salt for added health benefits
