Here’s a list of foods with more than 95% water content.
Iceberg Lettuce
Iceberg lettuce is 96% water, with only ten calories. Once consumed, it helps to retain moisture in the body, resolving issues such as constipation and dehydration. Lettuce also contains potassium, which helps to prevent muscle fatigue. You can use iceberg lettuce as a wrap to replace bread in a sandwich.
Celery
Celery is a fat-free, low-carb snack that is 95% water. One raw stalk contains 32 mg of sodium, and 104 mg of potassium, which helps to normalize blood pressure. A raw celery stick with cream cheese is the perfect post-workout snack.
Cucumbers
Cucumbers are 95% water. This vegetable works great in smoothies, salads, or sandwiches. Add cucumber, lemons, and a dash of salt to a glass of icy water to prevent dehydration and flush toxins from the body.
Radishes
Radishes are roots with porous tissues that are 95% water. They have a subtle spicy taste that makes them a popular addition to salads and tomato-based cocktails. Rich in vitamin C, phosphorus, and zinc, once cut open and consumed, the radish releases sulphuric compounds that have a natural cooling effect on the body.
Tomatoes
Tomatoes are a tasty source of water. This versatile fruit can be added to cocktails, salads, or any of the hydrating veggies named above. Each tomato fights dehydration with 95% water content.
Make Your Own Al Fresco Water
Water enriched with vegetables and fruits is called an “al fresco.” Fill a pitcher with cucumbers, ice water, and any combination of lemons, limes, mint, berries, and watermelon. Top it off with your favorite spring or mineral water, and you have the perfect natural hydration beverage.
