"The zucchini we enjoy today was developed in Italy and is a member of the cucumber and melon family. Zucchini's principal nutritional attribute is its low calorie content.
Because this summer squash is more than 95% water, it has just 19 calories per cup. Zucchini provides a good source of vitamin C, fiber, potassium and magnesium -- all nutrients that appear beneficial in lowering the risk of high blood pressure."
