Watermelon, MAN: It Packs Viagra Ingredient
Herbie Hancock's 1962 jazz hit "Watermelon Man" takes on a whole new
meaning from this little-known fact: One of its ingredients triggers
production of a chemical that works similar to Viagra.
And the millions of watermelons being enjoyed across the nation this
Fourth of July weekend just might help men get their groove back.
In fact, the ingredient, citrulline, might not only treat erectile
dysfunction but also help prevent it. In the body, citrulline is converted
to arginine, an amino acid known to improve the heart and circulatory system
and to boost the immune system.
It helps erectile dysfunction by relaxing blood vessels, similar to
Viagra's effect.
"The citrulline-arginine relationship helps heart health, the immune
system and may prove to be very helpful for those who suffer from obesity
and Type 2 diabetes," says Dr. Bhimu Patil, director of Texas A&M's Fruit
and Vegetable Improvement Center in College Station. "Arginine boosts nitric
oxide, which relaxes blood vessels, the same basic effect that Viagra has,
to treat erectile dysfunction and maybe even prevent it."
"The more we study watermelons, the more we realize just how amazing a
fruit it is in providing natural enhancers to the human body," Patil says.
"Watermelon may not be as organ-specific as Viagra, but it's a great way to
relax blood vessels without any drug side effects.
"We've always known that watermelon is good for you, but the list of
its very important healthful benefits grows longer with each study," he
says.

"God" is a casual and intellectually sparse rationalisation of nerve
impulses within the human brain, conflated with social and societal
expediencies, such as the division of labour and the wielding of authority,
resulting in a formal definition of a personification of an authority that
must not be questioned.

In any case, "watermelon", "coloreds"? What quaint insults! And, such
obvious ones. The only thing worse than propaganda is bad propaganda.
