Chinese melon, also known as Hami melon, is a type of melon native to China, specifically from the Xinjiang region. Its shape is oblong and elongated, unlike other melons, which are spherical. On the other hand, its skin is greenish, even when ripe, and its flesh is pale orange.

Chinese melon, despite the fact that it contains more sugars than other types of melons, is very beneficial for health. Its levels of water, vitamins and minerals make it the ideal option to include in your daily diet.

When consuming Chinese melon on a recurring basis (a portion of 100 – 150 grams a day or at least 4 times a week), the following may occur:

• Increased defenses.
• Laxative effect.
• Radiant and healthy skin.
• General hydration.
