Mini Cucumbers

Flavonoids & Tannins
Cucumbers contain many nutritional benefits according to the USDA, such as flavonoids and tannins, which help prevent the accumulation of harmful free radicals. These antioxidants may also reduce the risk of chronic disease.
Fiber
One emerging nutritional benefit of our crunchy cucumbers, states the USDA, is thanks to their fibrous nature. Cucumbers are a good source of fiber; and getting an additional 8.5 grams of fiber per day from fresh fruits and vegetables is associated with a 30% reduced risk for developing diverticulitis, a painful disease that causes inflammation of the colon.
Potassium
A good source of potassium which helps regulate fluid balance, muscle contractions, and nerve signals. The USDA states that potassium may help reduce blood pressure and protect against stroke, too!
Beta-Carotene
Beta carotene converts into Vitamin A, which we need for good vision and eye health, a strong immune system, and healthy skin, as noted by the USDA.
Vitamin K
According to the USDA, Cucumbers are a good source of vitamin K which supports bone health, wound healing, and normal blood clotting.

Preservation
Cut at the stem end and expose only the amount you need. Cut off the chunk you would like to use and rewrap the exposed end and unused portion with your excess wrap. The unused portion should stay wrapped to help the cucumber keep longer.
