The nutrition of melon seeds is quite high, and the contents of vitamins, protein and oils are outstanding. However, melon seeds are also a high-calorie food. The calories of melon seeds are 597 kcal, protein 23.9 g, vitamin E34.53 mg, fat 49.9 g and magnesium 264 mg. Such a high-calorie food, once eaten too much, is easy to get angry and gain weight.

Some nutritionists have said that one or two melon seeds are equivalent to the heat of a bowl of rice. Every 100g of melon seeds (peeled) (including sunflower seeds and watermelon seeds) contains more than 570 kilocalories, which is higher than rice, pork, mutton, chicken and duck with the same weight. Eating peanuts and melon seeds without restriction will increase the intake of calories and fat, increase weight and blood lipids, which is not conducive to the control of blood sugar and blood pressure. Expert's opinion: As a kind of nut food, melon seeds can be full when eaten properly, and can also supplement various nutrients needed by the human body. But because they are extremely rich in calories, eating too much will make them fat, which is not good for losing weight. It is recommended that dieters eat as little melon seeds as possible.
