How Does Papaya Whiten The Skin

Papaya has become known as a leading ingredient in skin whitening products because it
contains papain, a natural enzyme that promotes skin renewal and cell turnover. It helps
in exfoliating the skin to reveal newer cells, and has restorative properties that soften the
skin. To maximize the benefits of papaya, use papaya soap to exfoliate as well as papaya
lotion to moisturize your skin.
Eating papaya may also aid in whitening skin and overall skin clarity. Papaya is rich in
vitamins A, E and C, and other anti-oxidants that help in giving skin the moisture and
protection it needs. The nutrients contained in the papaya fruit helps in the skin's healing
as well. In certain cultures in South America and Asia, papaya is eaten not only as a ripe
fruit but also as a young, green fruit used in stews and soups. Papaya leaves are also
sometimes mixed into some dishes as well. A ripe papaya fruit can also be made into
shakes and smoothies, or eaten as a stand-alone fruit snack after meals.
Complement a papaya regimen with other nutrients and ways to protect your skin, such
as moisturizers and sunscreen. Regular care, maintenance and a good hygiene are
components of naturally beautiful skin.

How to Whiten With Papaya

Papaya contains an enzyme that benefits the skin.
Papaya is an active ingredient in many commercial beauty products that are designed to
lighten the skin. Papain, an enzyme contained in the papaya, will help to soften and
whiten the skin, reducing the appearance of freckles and age spots. It also has exfoliation
properties, removing dead skin. It is quite simple to prepare the papaya yourself. No
special materials are necessary and you can have all of the benefits of commercially
prepared papaya products at a fraction of the price. You will also have complete control
over the quality of the ingredients. The papaya product you make yourself will be free of
chemical additives.
Instructions
1. Choose a healthy papaya. It should be ripe, but not too soft. Try to find one without
bruises. Peel the papaya and remove any seeds that might be present. Cut it into
medium-sized pieces with a paring knife.
2. Place the papaya pieces in a blender. Blend it at medium until it forms a thick, smooth
mash. This should take up to 30 seconds.
3. Wash your face and gently dry it. Do the same with any other area of your body that
you wish to lighten. Apply the papaya paste directly to your face and other parts of your
skin, avoiding the area close to your eyes. Leave it on for about 15 minutes.

4. Rinse the papaya mash off your face with warm water. Pat your face dry with a clean
towel. Then apply your usual face moisturizer.
5. Repeat this process three times per week. After about three weeks you should notice
some positive results.

Papaya Benefits For Skin

Papaya is one of the best fruits for skin care. Papaya not only cleanses your skin but also
make your skin glow. It contains rejuvenating enzymes that exfoliate your skin to provide
you a glowing complexion.
Papaya benefits

Its loaded with papain and vitamin A. The enzyme papain breaks down inactive proteins
and eliminates dead skin cells. The vitamin A works as an anti-oxidant.
Its best attribute is that it contains low sodium quantity. As the salt content is less, the
water retention is also small. This leads to an overall hydrated skin.
Following are the Papaya benefits for skin:
1. It is a good source of vitamin A, so it works as a great anti-oxidant on skin.
2. Its higher papain levels make it an excellent natural exfoliant. It helps in removing
dead skin cells.
3. Papaya helps in preventing premature aging and has anti-cancerous and antiinflammatory properties.
4. The AHAs (alpha hydroxyl acids) act to break down proteins and dissolve the dead skin
cells. That is why many exfoliating skin products contain AHAs. Papain has similar
properties and is found in abundance in Papaya. So, papaya acts as a natural, plant-based
alternative to chemical exfoliants. Massage papaya on your face. Let it stay there for 5
minutes and rinse your face with lukewarm water and finally with cool water. Papaya is an
acidic fruit, so dont let the papaya sit on your face for more time, as it can cause dryness
and might irritate your skin.
5. Since, green papaya is a rich source of papain; you can use papaya for skin whitening.
6. Papaya works as a great skin-firming and anti-aging agent. Mash papaya and apply on
your face with or without milk. It helps in removing blemishes, dark spots and provides an
even tone to your skin.
7. Blend papaya with honey to make a nourishing, hydrating and skinbrightening face mask.
Benefits of Papaya for skin
Well, I talked about the benefits of Apple on skin last time. Today, I would be talking about
another very nutritious fruit "Papaya". Papaya is the best bet when it comes to skin care.
It is a good source of Vitamin A and papain. Vitamin A acts as an anti-oxidant, while the
papain breaks down inactive proteins and removes dead skin cells. The best feature of
the fruit is its low sodium quality. Since the salt content is less, the water retention is also
little. The result is an overall hydrated skin.

Why does Philippines need the k 12 education system?

The K to 12 Program covers Kindergarten and 12 years of basic education (six
years of primary education, four years of Junior High School, and two years of
Senior High School [SHS]) to provide sufficient time for mastery of concepts and skills,
develop lifelong learners, and prepare graduates for tertiary education, middle-level skills
development, employment, and entrepreneurship.

SALIENT FEATURES
Strengthening Early Childhood Education (Universal Kindergarten)
Every Filipino child now has access to early childhood education through Universal
Kindergarten. At 5 years old, children start schooling and are given the means to slowly
adjust to formal education.
Research shows that children who underwent Kindergarten have better completion rates
than those who did not. Children who complete a standards-based Kindergarten program
are better prepared, for primary education.
Education for children in the early years lays the foundation for lifelong learning and for
the total development of a child. The early years of a human being, from 0 to 6 years, are
the most critical period when the brain grows to at least 60-70 percent of adult size..[Ref:
K to 12 Toolkit]
In Kindergarten, students learn the alphabet, numbers, shapes, and colors through
games, songs, and dances, in their Mother Tongue.
Making the Curriculum Relevant to Learners (Contextualization and
Enhancement)
Examples, activities, songs, poems, stories, and illustrations are based on local culture,
history, and reality. This makes the lessons relevant to the learners and easy to
understand.Students acquire in-depth knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes through
continuity and consistency across all levels and subjects.Discussions on issues such as
Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR), Climate Change Adaptation, and Information &
Communication Technology (ICT) are included in the enhanced curriculum.

Building Proficiency through Language (Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual

Education)
Students are able to learn best through their first language, their Mother Tongue (MT).
Twelve (12) MT languages have been introduced for SY 2012-2013: Bahasa Sug, Bikol,
Cebuano, Chabacano, Hiligaynon, Iloko, Kapampangan, Maguindanaoan, Meranao,
Pangasinense, Tagalog, and Waray. Other local languages will be added in succeeding
school years.
Aside from the Mother Tongue, English and Filipino are taught as subjects starting Grade
1, with a focus on oral fluency. From Grades 4 to 6, English and Filipino are gradually
introduced as languages of instruction. Both will become primary languages of instruction
in Junior High School (JHS) and Senior High School (SHS).
After Grade 1, every student can read in his or her Mother Tongue. Learning in Mother
Tongue also serves as the foundation for students to learn Filipino and English easily.
Ensuring Integrated and Seamless Learning (Spiral Progression)
Subjects are taught from the simplest concepts to more complicated concepts through
grade levels in spiral progression. As early as elementary, students gain knowledge in
areas such as Biology, Geometry, Earth Science, Chemistry, and Algebra. This ensures a
mastery of knowledge and skills after each level.
For example, currently in High School, Biology is taught in 2nd Year, Chemistry in 3rd
Year, and Physics in 4th Year. In K to 12, these subjects are connected and integrated
from Grades 7 to 10. This same method is used in other Learning Areas like Math.

Hearing Up for the Future (Senior High School)

Senior High School is two years of specialized upper secondary education; students may
choose a specialization based on aptitude, interests, and school capacity. The choice of
career track will define the content of the subjects a student will take in Grades 11 and
12. SHS subjects fall under either the Core Curriculum or specific Tracks.
CORE CURRICULUM
There are seven Learning Areas under the Core Curriculum. These are Languages,
Literature, Communication, Mathematics, Philosophy, Natural Sciences, and Social
Sciences. Current content from some General Education subjects are embedded in the
SHS curriculum.
TRACKS
Each student in Senior High School can choose among three tracks: Academic; TechnicalVocational-Livelihood; and Sports and Arts. The Academic track includes three strands:
Business, Accountancy, Management (BAM); Humanities, Education, Social Sciences
(HESS); and Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM).
Students undergo immersion, which may include earn-while-you-learn opportunities, to
provide them relevant exposure and actual experience in their chosen track.
TVET (TECHNICAL VOCATIONAL EDUCATION & TRAINING) NATIONAL CERTIFICATE
After finishing Grade 10, a student can obtain Certificates of Competency (COC) or a
National Certificate Level I (NC I). After finishing a Technical-Vocational-Livelihood track in
Grade 12, a student may obtain a National Certificate Level II (NC II), provided he/she
passes the competency-based assessment of the Technical Education and Skills
Development Authority (TESDA).
NC I and NC II improves employability of graduates in fields like Agriculture, Electronics,
and Trade.
MODELING BEST PRACTICES FOR SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL
In SY 2012-2013, there are 33 public high schools, public technical-vocational high
schools, and higher education institutions (HEIs) that have implemented Grade 11. This is
a Research and Design (R&D) program to simulate different aspects of Senior High School
in preparation for full nationwide implementation in SY 2016-2017. Modeling programs
offered by these schools are based on students interests, community needs, and their
respective capacities.
NURTURING THE HOLISTICALLY DEVELOPED FILIPINO (COLLEGE AND
LIVELIHOOD READINESS, 21ST CENTURY SKILLS)
After going through Kindergarten, the enhanced Elementary and Junior High curriculum,
and a specialized Senior High program, every K to 12 graduate will be ready to go into
different paths may it be further education, employment, or entrepreneurship.
Every graduate will be equipped with:
1.

Information, media and technology skills,

2.
3.
4.

Learning and innovation skills,

Effective communication skills, and
Life and career skills.
