黄瓜促进骨骼健康
The nutrient in cucumbers is vitamin K, which is key for bone health. One cup of cucumber with the peel still on supplies over 20% of the recommended daily target for vitamin K. This nutrient is required for bone formation, and several studies have linked low K levels to osteoporosis and increased fracture risk.

黄瓜或能促进心血管健康
Cucumbers contain dozens of antioxidants, including flavonoids, which are known to protect against heart disease. The seeds may also be beneficial: In a study published last year, a small group of people with mildly elevated blood fats consumed dried cucumber seed extracts daily. After six weeks they experienced a number of favorable changes, including decreased total cholesterol, decreased "bad" LDL cholesterol, increased "good" HDL, and decreased triglycerides.
黄瓜含有多种抗氧化剂,包括能预防心脏病的类黄酮。黄瓜籽也能带来健康益处:去年发表的一篇文章中,一小组血脂水平略高的人每天都食用干的黄瓜籽提取物。六周后,他们的情况出现了好转,包括总胆固醇水平降低、"有害"低密度脂蛋白胆固醇降低、"有益"高密度脂蛋白水平升高,以及甘油三酯水平降低。
