There is almost no nutritional value in a cucumber because it consists of mostly water. However, there is some roughage in the skin and seeds, which the body needs to aid digestion. There are useful trace elements, vitamins and minerals in it too, and its flavour and texture can encourage healthy eating.

Cucumbers also contain the minerals magnesium, phosphorous, potassium and manganese. They are low in fat, cholesterol and sodium and are an excellent source of fiber.
