These 5 groups of people shouldn’t eat watermelon

While watermelon is loaded with vitamins, antioxidants, and hydration benefits, it’s not suitable for everyone. Some individuals should be cautious when enjoying this summertime favorite.

Watermelon has a high glycemic index (GI), meaning it can cause blood sugar to spike quickly—even if it’s relatively low in calories. People with diabetes or insulin resistance should monitor their portion sizes and pair it with protein or fiber to slow absorption.
