Health Benefits

Watermelon:

Watermelon has tons of nutrients. Each juicy bite has significant levels of vitamins A, B6 and C, lots of lycopene, antioxidants and amino acids.

Chile Pepper:

Chile Pepper has high beta-carotene content, and just two teaspoons of red chili peppers provide about 6% of the daily value of vitamin C coupled with more than 10% of the daily value of vitamin A. Plus it helps speed up your metabolism!

Lime aids in weight loss, digestion and helps relieve constipation.
