Melon is a fruit that has a high sugar content. Typically, the sugar content per 100 grams of melon is around 10%, which means that each 100 grams of melon contains about 10 grams of sugar. This makes melon one of the high sugar fruits. Melons, also known as cantaloupe, contain vitamins, dietary fiber, minerals and other components, which makes it a fruit with high nutritional value, and different varieties of melons contain different amounts of sugar.

The sugar in melon comes mainly from two substances: glucose and fructose. Both of these sugars are monosaccharides that are easily absorbed and utilized by the body. In contrast, polysaccharides such as sucrose need to be broken down into monosaccharides before they can be absorbed and utilized. Therefore, although the sugar content in melons is not low compared to other fruits, it is absorbed faster and can quickly provide energy for the body to use.
