Cantaloupe refers to two varieties of muskmelon which is
a species in the family Cucurbitaceae. Cantaloupes are
typically 15–25 cm in length and are somewhat oblong,
though not as oblong as watermelons. Like all melons,
cantaloupes grow best in sandy, well-aerated,
well-watered soil that is free of encroaching weeds. The
cantaloupe originated in India and Africa.
Cantaloupes range in color from orange, yellow, and
salmon with musky aroma that emanates through the melon
when it is ripe. Inside the cantaloupes we see a hollow
cavity that contains their seeds encased in a web like
encasement.
Cantaloupes contributes, promotes lung health and
protect eye vision.
Cantaloupe is rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, potassium ,
dietary fiber, vitamin B3 or niacin, vitamin B6 and
folate.
