CANTALOUPE
Cantaloupe is a variety of the Cucumis melo species in the Cucurbitaceae family. The fruit (also known as muskmelon) is part of the gourd family and is known for being super-hydrating and sweet.
The fruit's soft, juicy pulp and sweet flavor also make it the perfect substitute for high-calorie sugary snacks and desserts.
Many studies have suggested that increasing consumption of plant foods such as cantaloupe decreases the risk of obesity, overall mortality, diabetes, and heart diseasewhile promoting a healthy complexion and hair, increased energy, and overall lower weight.
