Cucumbers Are Wrapped With Health Benefits! That’s exactly what they are, as the cucumber peel has even more nutrition than the cucumber itself. Cucumber peels contain silica, which helps build collagen and ensures well-toned skin. Additionally, the peel also contains vitamin A, which promotes better vision and provides 10% of the daily recommendation for infection fighting vitamin C. One more reason to keep the peel: a cup of cucumber with the peel contains 49 micrograms of vitamin K, which helps blood clot, while peeled cucumber contains just 9 micrograms.
