The episode will focus on the benefits of a diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables, and more specifically on Fresh Quest’s offshore melon production.

On location at Fruta Mundial, one of Fresh Quest's melon farms, they take a look at the melon production process, from harvest, to packing, to quality control, and shipping.

Cantaloupe is an excellent source of Vitamins A, B6 and C, and the mineral potassium. It’s also a very good source of dietary fiber, folate, niacin, pantothenic acid, and thiamine. The cantaloupe extract oxykine is rich in superoxide dismutase (SOD), and studies have concluded that cantaloupe SOD extract promotes cellular antioxidant activity. “Through our participation with American Farmer, Fresh Quest, Inc. hopes viewers gain a better appreciation for everything we do to grow, pack and deliver our healthy products to the consumer,” said Alan Guttmann, Vice President of Business Development for Fresh Quest, Inc.
