Melon has a healthy balance of carbohydrates, proteins and water. If you choose to cook and eat its seeds, you will also benefit from omega-3 fatty acids. It does not have many calories, which makes it suitable for any type of diet.

The powerful vitamins A and C it contains are essential for strong, shiny and healthy hair and only one portion contains 100% of the recommended daily values of both elements. Vitamin A, also known as retinol, is essential for the production of sebum, a compound that keeps scalp and hair hydrated and healthy, while vitamin C is essential for the construction and maintenance of collagen, which provides structure to the skin. and hair.

Maybe your favorite moisturizer contains “stabilized retinol”, ie vitamin A. Research has shown that it improves sun damage to the skin and helps repair, hydrate and stabilize the collagen production of the skin. Combine the melon in a salad with olive oil, as a snack with a handful of almonds or a piece of smoked salmon for better absorption of fat-soluble vitamin A.
