Fine in a portion — worth keeping an eye on.

Honeydew Melon carries roughly 10 g of sugar per 140 g, which works out to about 7 g per 100 g. That places it in the 'moderate' band for a typical serving.

Because this sugar occurs naturally in the food itself, it typically comes packaged with fibre, water, or other nutrients that slow how fast it hits your bloodstream — unlike the same amount of sugar added to a processed product.
