Melon seed is a seed derived from a bitter Apple fruit.cIt can be found in Africa,Asia,Arab etc. The Igbo tribe call it Egusi. In my dialect it is called "Ikon". It comes in a gourd similar to a watermelon.

While the Asians use it to treat many conditions, Africans produce oil from it. In Nigeria we use it to make a soup called " Melon soup" or "Egusi soup" it is made with fresh green vegetable, fish,meat,seasoning, palm oil etc. It is neat served with pounded yam,garri or fufu.
Melon seed is a good source of Vitamin E,Magnesium,Zinc,Iron,etc. It is naturally cholesterol free.
It is beneficial to one's health in that it helps regulate blood pressure and prevent diabetes.
Thanks for engaging my blog. I am sure you have learnt something or more .
Hello @millymillions. I'm back to remind you of the community rules.
OCD is for topics that don't fit in any other community and should be used when you don't find a niche community for your post. This post for example would fit better in Natural Medicine community.
Here's a guide I put together to help you learn about how communities work and why you should use them -> Communities Explained - Newbie Guide.
Once you posted your post in the right community, you can then cross post it to OCD community. Here's a guide about cross posting.
Please don't delete any post with the purpose of reposting it in another community as that can be considered abuse! Leave this post here, you'll get it right next time.
Thank you @erikah . I thought so but then I have tried posting content like this there and it didn't seem welcomed. So I thought since OCD community is available,why not?
But thanks anyway. Noted! Like you said,I will get it right next time.
What do you mean by that? I have checked your posting history, you have posted 4 posts in the Natural Medicine community and I don't see any moderator comment saying your post or topic is not welcomed.
You dropped a comment,I simply replied. The question "what do you mean by that?" sounds harsh here.
Like I had said I will sure get it next time. Thank you.
Can you please tell me why do you think my question is harsh? How else should we clarify things we don't understand if not by asking? How should I have asked what do you mean by that?
@erikah thank you
So what exactly is OCD community for? Because your second paragraph I do not get. Does this mean that until I find a suitable community for any thing I am writing about,I can't post it in OCD. Also does it mean that all I have ever posted in the OCD community,I shouldn't have?
That means if there's a community for the topic you are writing about, you should post in that community. Use OCD only if there's no community for the topic.
I'm not going to go through one year of posting to analyze each post of yours, you can get familiar with the communities we have on Hive and decide if there's a niche community for the topics you are usually posting about. It's a good way to get familiar with the existing niche communities we have on Hive.
@erikah understood
The melon seed is amazing
@taysonn yes indeed
