Eat melons in summer to cool off the heat! High-quality and low-heat, and can help defecate by taking seeds in the skin. However, people in the first category should not eat melons at night.

According to the weather, Chinese medicine recommends "eating melons in summer". Summer is the season for fruits and melons, and the melons are rich in moisture, which can relieve heat. Melons are known as the "king of the fruit world". Xu Jiajing, a nutritionist at Dali Renai Hospital, said that the heavy fruits and melons are actually low in heat, with 100 grams of about 30 calories. The dietary fiber can increase the feeling of foot and promote stomach peristalsis.

Cantaloupe has rich nutritional value and low heat content.

Xu Jiajing said that cantaloupe is sweet and juicy, and the flesh contains vitamins A, B, C, osmodium, and dietary fiber. The peel and seeds have high crude fiber content. Especially seeds contain digestive enzymes, and they can eat them with seeds together, so they have super smooth bowel movements. However, patients with stomach discomfort and patients with digestive atrophy should try to avoid worsening of the symptoms.

Cantaloupe tastes very sweet. Can diabetics eat it? Xu Jiajing said that as long as you control the consumption of no more than 165 grams per day, and about eight cents of a bowl, there will be no problem. The sweetness index (GI value) of melon is between 65 and 70, and the GI value is not high, and the sweetness of fruits and the sweetness index are not related to the sweetness index, so there is no need to worry too much.

The melon type is cold in nature. Because of its high moisture content, Xu Jiajing suggested that it is best to eat it after eating at noon. People with poor kidney and stomach function should not eat melon type fruits at night.

Some melons taste bitter. Xu Jiajing reminds that it is a cucumber that plants protect themselves. The flesh near the stalk has a bit of bitterness that is normal. If other parts also taste bitter, it means that the melon has been damaged and is not recommended to eat it.
