Cucumbers are refreshing, low-calorie vegetables made up of 95% water, making them great for hydration and weight management. Their fiber aids digestion, and antioxidants like vitamin C and flavonoids help protect cells, slow aging, and lower disease risk. Nutrients such as silica and lycopene also support skin, hair, and nails.
However, excessive intake may cause bloating due to their water and fiber content, and some varieties contain compounds (like cucurbitacins) that can upset digestion if eaten in large amounts. Rarely, they may trigger allergic reactions.
