Although watermelon is high in calories, it is far less than its sugar content. Come and learn together that sugar content is not equal to calories.
The amount of sugar is not equal to calories 1 1. About heat,
First of all, let me answer the calories of melon. If the edible part of melon is 100g, its calorie is 26 calories; 0.40 grams of dietary fiber; Protein 0.40 g; Fat 0.10g; Carbohydrate 6.20 grams. It can be seen that melon has high sugar content, but low calorie. According to the calculation, the average adult needs about 2200 kilocalories every day, so the calorie per100g of melon accounts for about 1% of the total calories recommended by the China Nutrition Society for the average adult to keep healthy. Therefore, eating some melons in moderation will not lead to obesity.
2. About gaining weight
After understanding the calories of melons, let's see if eating melons will lead to obesity. Wax gourd is low in calories, 26 calories/100g, which belongs to low-calorie food. However, the sugar content in melon is very high, and the transformation between sugar and fat is two-way, but the degree of transformation is different, and sugar can form a lot of fat. Moreover, wax gourd contains a lot of carbohydrates, which can easily lead to obesity if eaten too much.
Above, I answered the heat of melon. In addition, wax gourd is a seasonal fruit in summer, which is rich in water and has the effects of relieving summer heat, quenching thirst and moistening throat. As long as it is not overeating, it will not affect the figure and weight loss effect, so what are the friends waiting for? Let's eat melons!

The calorie of watermelon is 25 kcal/100g.
The edible part of watermelon is about 70%, the average theoretical value of watermelon is 25 kcal/100g, and the theoretical value of rice is 350 kcal/100g. The weight of a watermelon is about 5 kg, while the weight of a bowl of rice is about 100 g.

2. Can watermelon lose weight?
Watermelon is not high in calories and can be eaten during weight loss, but it should not be used as a diet food, because the sugar content of watermelon is too high, and it is easy to accumulate fat if you eat too much.
Eat watermelon need to pay attention to the following points:
1, don't eat watermelon as a meal.
Watermelon has a high sugar content, and eating too much will lead to obesity. If you want to lose weight, you should eat watermelon in moderation instead of eating watermelon as a meal.
2. Don't treat watermelon as a midnight snack.
Watermelon contains sugar. If you take watermelon as a snack at night, it will increase insulin and increase the chance of fat synthesis, so that fat will accumulate in the abdomen and form a small belly.
3. Stop when you are full.
Watermelon contains fructose, which often makes people feel full, not full, so it is easy to cause obesity. We must pay attention to the amount of watermelon we eat and stop when we are full. Generally speaking, we eat 500 grams of watermelon at most every day. Eating too much watermelon water will dilute gastric juice, which will easily lead to indigestion and decreased gastrointestinal resistance.
