Melon, Galia, flesh only, weighed with skin

Galia melon is a fruit. This entry describes the flesh with the seeds removed, but the figures are based on the weight with the skin on, rather than flesh alone. Per 100g on this basis, it provides 3.8g of carbohydrate, all of which is sugars, 10mg of vitamin C and 0.1g of fat.

Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. The sugars in whole melon are naturally present within the fruit rather than added. The distinction between flesh weight and weight with skin is important when interpreting these values. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
