Cantaloupes, also known as muskmelons, help to lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels mainly due to their beta-carotene, folate, vitamin C and potassium content. Of all the melons, cantaloupe is the most nutritious, largely because it supplies a high amount of vitamin C and beta-carotene. The combination of vitamin C and beta-carotene supports a strong immune system fit to fight disease. Cantaloupe’s phytochemical team of rutin and glutathione helps to lower the risk of developing cancer and heart disease, as well as fight the signs of aging. Action Tip: The sweet juicy flavour of melons makes them a good choice to cleanse your palate after a meal. Cantaloupe’s delicious flavour adds colour and crunch to both green and fruit salads. As a snack, enjoy cantaloupe slices on their own or tossed with yogurt or cottage cheese. Frozen cubed cantaloupe can be enjoyed on kabobs or as ice cubes in drinks. |
