Wastage of food is a big concern for the world. In summers, so many fruits are available like watermelon, muskmelon, etc.; musk melons are one of them that are consumed all over the world. Around 32 % of musk melon is wasted; it includes 5% seeds and 27% peel of the total weight. Seeds of musk melons have great nutritional benefits. They have a very large number of bioactive compounds like tocopherols, phospholipids, and sterols. Musk melon seeds have antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antidiabetic, anti-Alzheimer and diuretic properties and can be used to treat or prevent many diseases. Therefore, musk melon seeds can be used as a functional food.
