Together, it has been observed that, the nutrients present in cucumbers are able to:
  • Reduce inflammation
  • Reduce oxidative stress
  • Treat headaches
  • Serve as a diuretic
  • Treat acne
  • Soothe tired, puffy eyes
  • Lower the risk of heart disease
  • Reduce the risk of several cancers, including breast, uterus, ovarian, and prostate cancers

Selecting Cucumbers

Since cucumbers can be very sensitive to heat, it is advised to choose those that are displayed in refrigerated cases in the market. Cucumbers should be firm, rounded at their edges, and their color should be a bright medium to dark green. Avoid cucumbers that are yellow, puffy, have sunken water-soaked areas, or are wrinkled at their tips.

As with all vegetables, it is recommended to select organically grown varieties when possible. Repeated research studies on organic foods as a group show that your likelihood of exposure to contaminants such as pesticides and heavy metals can be greatly reduced through the purchased of certified organic foods, including cucumbers. In many cases, you may be able to find a local organic grower who sells cucumbers but has not applied for formal organic certification either through the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) or through a state agency. However, if you are shopping in a large supermarket, your most reliable source of organically grown cucumbers is very likely to be cucumbers that display the USDA organic logo.

Storing Cucumbers

Cucumbers should be stored in the refrigerator where they will keep for several days. Cucumbers should not be left out at room temperature for too long as this will cause them to wilt and become limp.

Whenever food is stored, four basic factors affect its nutrient composition:
  1. exposure to air,
  2. exposure to light,
  3. exposure to heat, and
  4. length of time in storage.

Vitamin C, vitamin B6, and carotenoids are good examples of nutrients highly susceptible to heat, and for this reason, their loss from food is very likely to be slowed down through refrigeration.

If you do not use the entire cucumber during one meal, place it in a tightly sealed container so that it does not become dried out. For maximum quality, cucumber should be used within one or two days.

Preparing Cucumbers

Rinse cucumbers under cold running water and scrub with a natural bristle brush before slicing. There are many ways to cut cucumbers, depending on how you will be serving them. Peel cucumbers if they are not organically grown. Cut off and discard ends. Cut the cucumber widthwise to achieve the desired thickness. Cucumbers are sometimes salted to draw out excess liquid. Salting cucumbers is not recommended because they become limp and overly salty.
