Does watermelon really flush out kidney toxins?
The claim that watermelon flushes kidney toxins lacks evidence. Dr Sharad Malhotra, Gastroenterologist at Aakash Healthcare, clarifies kidneys naturally filter 120-150 litres of blood daily. Watermelon aids hydration and provides antioxidants like lycopene but does not detox kidneys. Balanced nutrition and medical care, not 'miracle fruits,' keep renal health intact.
