A Melon a Day

It is hard for me to resist all the beautiful organic melons as I stroll the Hollywood Farmers Market on Sunday mornings.

Cantaloupes, watermelons, persian melons, crenshaw melons - and melons whose names I don't remember - all so sweet and juicy and refreshing.

They're also very healthy. Melons have varying amounts of carotenoids to promote eye health and bone growth, Vitamin C, and nutrients that improve immune function, reduce blood pressure, and fight inflammation.

Plus they develop our muscles as we haul bags of them to our car.
