My husband is a diabetic and is cutting a cantaloupe for our daughter. He has asked a good question and hopefully someone on here has the answer. Does anyone know just how much sugar is in a fresh cantaloupe? Is it a safe snack for him to have? He is type 2 diabetic just to let you know.

Of course it's safe. As long as he doesn't eat too much of it, fruit is an important part of any healthy diet, whether diabetic or not. A serving of cantaloupe and other fruits counts as one serving of carbohydrates, or 15 grams.

In addition to a list of other benefits, most fruit has a ton of fiber, which slows down glucose absorption, so in moderation it could be beneficial for diabetics.

For this or any other nutritional concerns, feel free to contact me at the website below.

Yes, cantaloupe is a safe snack. Having said that, he will need to check and find out how much he can have and what the carb, sugar and calories are in whatever amount he is having. I have said this so many times, a diabetic can eat whatever they want, within reason and if they watch the carbs and calories. Ask any certified diabetic dietician. They can advise and help you figure out what you need.

Constance Brown-Riggs, a registered dietitian and author of "Eating Soulfully and Healthfully with Diabetes," says there are 10 tips for eating that will help make diabetes more manageable.

She recommends that diabetics and nondiabetics follow these:

Buy more fresh fruits and vegetables. A diet rich in potassium may help to maintain healthy blood pressure. Bananas, cantaloupe, apricots, oranges, plantains, sweet potatoes, beet greens, white potatoes, tomato products, lima beans and spinach are all rich in potassium.
