Information we found suggests that the average American watermelon has about 200 to 800 seeds.
Did you know that watermelon seeds can contribute to a healthy diet? Like many other seeds and nuts, watermelon seeds provide a source of healthy unsaturated fat. The seeds' main benefits, though, come from their mineral content. Consume roasted watermelon seeds as a source of essential minerals to help maintain healthy tissue and prevent disease.
These seeds are packed with protein, vitamin B, magnesium, and monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats, which have been shown to reduce cholesterol levels, inflammation and risk for heart disease and stroke.
