Melon, flesh only, average, weighed with skin

Melon is a fruit, and this entry describes the flesh without pips, calculated using the weight of the melon including its skin. It mainly provides water and carbohydrate. Per 100g weighed with skin, the edible flesh provides 3.7g of carbohydrate, including 3.7g of sugars, alongside 0.9g of fibre and 11mg of vitamin C.

Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body form collagen, which is needed for skin and other tissues. The sugars in melon are naturally occurring. For people monitoring carbohydrate intake, these sugars contribute to the total carbohydrate amount. The skin is included in the weighing basis, not as food eaten.
