The cucumber is a tropical plant that originated in Southeast Asia more than 10,000 years ago. It was originally used not only as a food, but also for its beneficial skin-healing properties. Cucumbers are composed primarily of water, but they are also a great source of vitamins C, A, and folic acid. The skin is rich in fiber, and also contains many valuable minerals such as potassium, magnesium, and silica – which strengthens our connective tissue, hair and nails. Topically, cucumbers can be used to treat swelling under the eyes and sunburns. Enjoy it on its own, in a salad, or added to water to create a fresh taste!
