The Papaya fruit offers not only the luscious taste and sunlit color of the tropics, but is also a nutritional powerhouse containing rich sources of antioxidant nutrients such as carotenes, vitamin C and flavonoids; the B vitamins, folate and pantothenic acid; and the minerals, potassium and magnesium; and fiber. Together, these nutrients promote the health of the cardiovascular system and also provide protection against colon cancer.
Papayas are also a good source of fiber, which has been shown to lower high cholesterol levels.
Papayas contain papain (an enzyme) which has functions such as helping to prevent parasites. This necessary digestive enzyme is antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral.
Papaya can be helpful treating acid reflux, diarrhea and constipation. Moreover, it can assist in the digestion of proteins i.e. the process in converting proteins to amino acids.
