(1) The melon is cold. Eating too much will cause stomach cold, which will lead to abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms. Although cantaloupe is delicious, it must be controlled, especially for people with spleen deficiency and stomach cold. Similarly, cantaloupe can't be eaten every day. People with gastrointestinal discomfort or cold stomach will only aggravate their illness every day, which is not good for their health. Moreover, even healthy people can't eat it every day, because cantaloupe is full of water. Eating too much will dilute the concentration of gastric juice, hurt the stomach and cause indigestion or abdominal pain and diarrhea.

Why do melons seldom eat with skin?
Although the skin of cantaloupe is edible in theory, we can find that people seldom eat cantaloupe with skin in life because:
1, Hami melon is vulnerable to insect pests in the late mature stage. Therefore, Hami melon needs to be sprayed with some pesticides to ensure its maturity. There are many pesticide residues on the skin, so people should try not to eat the skin to avoid ingesting pesticide residues.
2. The cortex of cantaloupe is hard and the taste is not good, especially the white cantaloupe, which is hard and not suitable for eating. Eating melon peel and pulp together will make the pulp taste worse, and some people don't like it.
3. Because some cantaloupes are not mature enough, Guo Ruoxiang is sweet, but there are still many bitter elements on the peel, which is very bitter to eat, which is one of the reasons why many people don't eat.
