Melons: Cleansing Food

Melons hold properties that can be critical to move someone forward in the healing process.

Melons are predigested—meaning that melon flesh is so assimilable that our digestive systems barely need to process it when it enters the body. The fructose in melon leaves the stomach in less than one minute, then the rest of the fruit drops directly into the intestinal tract, immediately fortifying and replenishing the body.

Eating melon is like getting intravenous nutrient therapy. Melons are essentially balls of purified water. This highly active fluid binds onto poisons, including mold, mycotoxins, viral neurotoxins, undigested protein toxins, ammonia gas, and bacterial toxins, flushing them out to allow the immune system to restore itself.

Melon’s high electrolyte content helps protect the brain and the rest of the nervous system from stress-related strokes, aneurysms, and embolisms. Melon thins the blood and reduces heart attack risk, helps prevent heart disease and vascular issues, and can help with liver and kidney disease.

The water in melon is nearly identical to our blood, and its sodium, potassium, and glucose are also abundant and bioavailable, making melon one of the most hydrating foods you can eat.

Melon is one of the most alkalizing foods. The fruit helps drive out traces of DDT, other pesticides, herbicides, and heavy metals from deep within the organs.

High in silica, melon is an excellent food to help ligaments, joints, bones, teeth, connective tissue, and tendons. Melon is one of the most powerful glucose balancers, working to prevent insulin resistance and lower elevated A1C levels.

How To Use:

To reap melon’s benefits, try eating at least half of a small melon per day. Eat melon alone for best digestion, not with any other fruit or food.
