We take a look at the reasons why melons of all three varieties are a healthy addition to a vegan diet.
Vegan on Female First
Watermelon (energy and protection)
- Watermelons have a high water content, which not only rehydrates you when you're inactive but makes it one of the best natural aids when working out.
- Watermelons also replenish your potassium levels, which helps to prevent muscle cramps and soreness post exercise.
- This fruit is also rich in L-Citrulline which aids faster recovery by reducing muscle soreness and fatigue.
Cantaloupe Melon (Skin & Collagen)
- This type of melon is rich in Vitamin A (Beta Carotene) which helps to reduce wrinkles by firming and tightening up the skin.
- It also boasts high levels of Vitamin C for the formation of collagen to add density, tightness and a glow to skin by preventing damage by free radicals.
Honeydew Melon (Immune and Nervous System)
- Honeydew melon also contains high levels of Vitamin C to support the normal function of the body's immune system and nervous system.
- This snack increases iron absorption as well to provide a natural energy boost and fight fatigue.
