1. Very filling

High fiber foods help your body feel fuller longer, and cantaloupes provide a heaping 7.3 grams of fiber, more than a quarter of your recommended daily intake. The high water content in cantaloupes  – 27% – also helps the body feel full, helping you to consume less calories without starving yourself.

2. Digests fast

Breakfast is a perfect time to maximize your weight loss efforts. Your body goes through a natural detox period called the elimination cycle between 4 am and noon, and cantaloupes digest quickly in 15-30 minutes. It’s best to eat your melon on an empty stomach and by itself. Try juicing your melon or just slicing it and digging right in with a spoon.
