I read in the site what cancer patients & survivors...........to eat and avoid that WATER MELON IS IN THE RECOMMENDED LIST
There are two types of water melon here
one has dark green thick rind or skin . The inside is red and the seeds are large and black.It is very sweet and full of sucrose
The other one is smaller in size, has fairly thin yellow skin.The flesh inside is white and the seeds are like cucumber seeds
My problem is which is the correct ont to give to Hema
Thanks all
