Carica Papaya- is the Papaya, which is a tree-like plant that bears fruit and is originally from the Americas specifically South America but it is now cultivated throughout regions that have temperate and tropical climates.
The papaya is used to for its antibacterial activity, anti-inflammatory effect both that control infection and speed up the tissue recovery.
The chemical breakdown of the papaya is the following: proteins: 1%; fat: 0.1%, carbohydrates: 6.2%, fiber 0.9%, ash: 0.6%, calcium: 38 mg, phosphorus: 20 mg, iron: 0.3 mg, Sodium: 7 mg, potassium: 215 mg; carotene: 15 mg, Thiamine: 0.02 mg, Riboflavin: 0.03 mg, Niacin: 0.30 mg, ascorbic acid: 40 mg.
Various studies have been conducted and posted on Tramil but we will concentrate on the most successful:
“The latex of green fruit protect against experimentally induced gastric ulcer and decreased acid secretion induced by intravenous histamine in the gastric fistula rat.”
“The ethanol extract of dried leaves to rats intraperitoneally, showed analgesic activity (20 mg / kg), anticonvulsant (20 and 100 mg / kg), skeletal muscle relaxant (50 mg / kg), positive chronotropic (200 mg / kg ) and reassuring (10 mg / kg) 29”.
The juice of the unripe fruit has shown a significant decrease in the following viruses: Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Shigella flexneri and Staphylococcus aureus.
The papaya is a fruit tree that has various medical benefits in the roots, leaves, seeds, and the fruit itself. Discovering the medical benefits of each facet of the plant is a laborious and difficult process only a skilled scientist or someone who spent days at end analyzing, gathering, and observing plants can decipher the mystery. This profile perfectly fits Macandal who gathered all sorts of plants, “pods that burst at midday with the pop of a flea cracked under the nail; creepers that plaited themselves in slimy tangles far from the sun” (18).
