Want a drink that tastes delicious?  How about a drink that’s even good for you?  Well, that’s what Rock Melon is all about!  It is made from cantaloupe, a muskmelon that grows extensively all over the world.  Rock Melon includes the nutrients that you can’t beat!  And now we have bottled all that wholesome goodness for you!

 

Here are just some of the many benefits of cantaloupes:

 

Anemia: The amount of folate promotes healthy growth and maintenance of the body’s cells and helps prevent against anemia.

 

Anxiety: The lipid called myoinositol aids in combating anxiety, as well as insomnia.

 

Atherosclerosis (or hardening of the arteries): The high amount of vitamin C in cantaloupes has also been shown to slow down the process of atherosclerosis.

 

Cancer: The American Cancer Society has suggested that cantaloupes may be helpful in preventing various types of cancers, including intestinal and skin cancers.  Cantaloupes provide antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.  

 

Cardiovascular Disease: A compound called adenosine is rich in cantaloupes.  It has a blood-thinning property that is protective in preventing development of blood clots within the cardiovascular system.  The amount of folate found in these fruits has also been linked to the prevention of heart attacks.

 

Cataracts: They say vitamin A is good for your eyes.  Well, it also helps lower the risk of developing cataracts and helps maintain good vision too! 

 

Constipation: The amount of fiber and hydration in cantaloupes helps aid in digestion.  It also promotes and helps maintain a healthy digestive tract.

 

Diabetes: The vitamins B6, folic acid, and niacin work together with potassium to regulate carbohydrate metabolism and blood sugars levels, improving the metabolism of insulin, and protecting against the development of diabetes.  

 

High Blood Pressure: The large amount of potassium in cantaloupes play a vital role in decreasing blood pressure by aiding in the excretion of sodium.

 

Immune System: Vitamin C is beneficial in strengthening your immune system and the body’s defenses.  It stimulates your white blood cells to help fight viruses, bacteria, and other potentially harmful infectious processes.

 

Skin Hydration: Cantaloupes have a high amount of water content, as well as a great source of B vitamins.  This helps keep the skin replenished and looking young!  The amount of vitamins A and C works as antioxidants, eliminating free radicals, and slowing down the signs of aging.

 

Smoking Cessation: The nutrients in cantaloupe juice can help decrease the effects of nicotine withdrawal. The vitamin A can also counteract the effects of carcinogens in cigarette smoke, preventing lung inflammation and emphysema.

 

Stress: Stress can be reduced by consuming this fruit and drinking its juice regularly.  The amount of potassium helps regulate normal heartbeat, thereby improving the oxygen supply to the brain, helping you feel more relaxed and calm.
