5. Melons

Melons are a must-have for low-carb diets. Watermelon has the lowest carbs, with 7.55 grams per 100 gram serving. While most of the carbs are absorbed due to low fiber content, watermelon wins in vitamin A, and its high water content makes people feel full on fewer calories. Diced cantaloupe has 6.5 grams of net carbs in each half-cup serving, along with potassium and vitamin A. Vitamin-rich honeydew melons have eight grams of carbs in every half cup.
