COOL CUKES



Cool Cukes image

This is my version of the pickled vegetables they serve at Vietnamese restaurants. I have eliminated the sugar by using Splenda. This is a very refreshing and bright tasting side dish. It goes very well with rice based dishes or grilled meats. FYI - You can buy already prepared matchstick carrots in the grocery store.

7 HEALTH BENEFITS OF EATING CUCUMBER
7-health-benefits-of-eating-cucumber image

From healthline.com
  • It’s High in Nutrients. Cucumbers are low in calories but high in many important vitamins and minerals. One 11-ounce (300-gram) unpeeled, raw cucumber contains the following (1)
  • It Contains Antioxidants. Antioxidants are molecules that block oxidation, a chemical reaction that forms highly reactive atoms with unpaired electrons known as free radicals.
  • It Promotes Hydration. Water is crucial to your body’s function, playing numerous important roles (7). It is involved in processes like temperature regulation and the transportation of waste products and nutrients (7).
  • It May Aid in Weight Loss. Cucumbers could potentially help you lose weight in a few different ways. First of all, they are low in calories. Each one-cup (104-gram) serving contains just 16 calories, while an entire 11-ounce (300-gram) cucumber contains only 45 calories (1).
  • It May Lower Blood Sugar. Several animal and test-tube studies have found that cucumbers may help reduce blood sugar levels and prevent some complications of diabetes.
  • It Could Promote Regularity. Eating cucumbers may help support regular bowel movements. Dehydration is a major risk factor for constipation, as it can alter your water balance and make the passage of stool difficult (15).
  • Easy to Add to Your Diet. Mild with a distinctly crisp and refreshing flavor, cucumbers are commonly enjoyed fresh or pickled in everything from salads to sandwiches.
