Carica papaya (papaya or pawpaw) is a fruiting plant found in tropical regions of the world.
It has been cultivated for centuries for its medicinal properties.
The green fruit and leaves have significant levels of calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese,
phosphorous, potassium, zinc and vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5 and C. The high nutrient content
makes it ideal for digestive upsets and conditions of poor absorption. These may include
heartburn, indigestion and inflammatory bowel disorders.
Papaya also contains high concentrations of the digestive enzyme papain, which facilitates
the breakdown of protein. Papain has been used to support the pancreas, decrease mucous,
reduce the pain of rheumatism and to destroy intestinal worms. As a vermifuge, unripened
papaya has been used to digest the worm. Other treatments involve killing the worms and
relying on the body to eliminate the debris.
In this formulation the therapeutic benefits of the mature green papaya leaves and fruit have
been enhanced with the inclusion of green tea extract, chilli, lemon juice and fermented
lactobacillus.
GREEN TEA EXTRACT increases the antioxidant value (which assists with reducing free
radical damage), improves cell wall integrity, supports the immune system and prevents
oxidative stress.
CHILLI (cayenne) has a positive effect on the cardiovascular, respiratory and digestive
systems. Chilli stimulates circulation, removes mucous and reduces inflammation.
