SD Papaya Powder

Description

May boost the immune system
Studies suggest that all parts of the papaya plant contain phytochemicals that have immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties. Specifically, papaya seems to be able to enhance the function of immune cells in the body, reduce inflammatory markers, and improve the body’s resistance to bacterial and viral threats.
May improve digestion
Papaya contains an enzyme called papain, which can break down proteins and improve their absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. Eventually, this improves digestion and significantly reduces such unpleasant symptoms like bloating and constipation, as reported by several studies. By the way, papain is also used in different tenderizers as a natural ingredient that can effectively soften meat.
Is rich in antioxidants
All parts of the papaya plant, including its pulp and peel, are packed with natural antioxidants. The flavonoids, polyphenols, carotenoids, and other phytochemicals of the papaya plant are able to effectively capture and neutralize the free radicals that are formed in the body. An excessive amount of free radicals increases the oxidative stress levels in the body and leads to the development of inflammation. Free radicals may also cause DNA damage, and even increase cancer risk. It’s great to know that such a delicious food like papaya may help to avoid these nasty consequences!
May alleviate symptoms of arthritis
Papain, the main enzyme of the papaya fruit, is believed to have anti-inflammatory and analgesic (pain-killing) properties. Animal studies also report that papaya leaves extract is able to reduce local swelling, and most likely this effect is also based on papain’s anti-inflammatory action. Altogether, these effects may be extremely beneficial for people suffering from arthritis, as well as other chronic inflammatory conditions.
Could help in fighting off bacteria
Another great property of all parts of the papaya fruit is that they show significant antibacterial activity even against such dangerous germs like Staphylococcus aureus. Some scientists suggest that the fruit could be used to treat multi-resistant infections in the future, but more studies are needed to confirm this idea.
May support heart health
What’s also amazing about papaya is the number of ways through which this fruit can help your heart. For instance, some studies found that the active ingredients in papaya may decrease blood pressure in a fashion that’s comparable to conventional drugs like enalapril. Papaya also seems to protect the heart cells from toxins, as reported by animal studies, possibly due to all of its antioxidative power. Also, papaya packs quite a bit of melatonin, which has been reported to have cardioprotective properties as well.
May support oral health and prevent dental plaque.
The alkaloids, flavonoids, and polyphenols present in papaya can regulate and normalize the growth of bacteria in the oral cavity. Essentially, this effect could help.  Please contact us for a wholesale price.
