Melon, Honeydew, flesh only, weighed whole

Honeydew melon is a fruit eaten for its flesh. These data describe the flesh only, with amounts calculated per 100g of whole melon rather than per 100g of edible flesh. On this basis, it provides 4g carbohydrate, including 4g sugars, together with 5mg vitamin C and 104mg potassium.

The sugars in melon occur naturally within the fruit. Vitamin C supports normal collagen formation and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Potassium contributes to normal nerve and muscle function. The whole-fruit weight basis is worth noting when comparing these values with those for other foods. Full figures are in the tables below.
