melon has had much traditional use in the Orient as a foodstuff and
'toni

isolated from the plant, including a bloo

a
lectin). The plant could be of benefit in
rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. It ha
s
numerous reported benefits for boils, burns, skin
eruptions, itching skin, pile

measles. It is also reported to ha
v
e styptic and astringent properties.
Momordica charantia, is also a plant found in
China, where it is (not surprising
ly) known as
Chinese Bitter Melon. It has been used in traditional Chinese medic

stimulant, a treatment for gastrointestinal infection, and to

ower blood sugar in
diabetics. Recently, it has also been used in the treatment
o
f certain types of
cancer and viral infections.

What Is Bitter Melon Used for Today?
Preliminary studies appear to confirm the first
of these folk uses, suggesting t
hat bitter melon
may improve blood sugar control in people with diabetes.1,2,3 I
f
you have diabetes, you
might consider adding bitter melon to your diet, but onl
y
under a doctor's
supervision (see Safety Issues).
Bitter melon has
also been suggested as a treatment for AIDS, but the evidence t
hus far is too weak to even mention. There is
absolutely no evidence that it can
treat cancer.
