Cucumbers are mostly water so they can help with hydration levels, plus the skins contain fibre to help keep you regular and avoid constipation. There are small amounts of vitamin K in cucumber and this can help with blood clotting and bone health.
They also contain vitamin A which can help with vision, the immune system and reproduction, while also making sure your heart, lungs and kidneys work the way they should.
