Green Papaya Powder and Enzymes
Enzymes are critical for life; they are the body's labor force. Enzymes metabolize, digest, and assimilate all substances entering the body. For example, live enzymes digest food, destroy toxins, break down fats and cellulose, and metabolize starch and proteins.
Furthermore, enzymes are involved in moving muscles, nourishing nerves, stimulating brain function, breathing, accompanying male sperm and female eggs, fighting off illness, infection, and disease, and more. A shortage of live active enzymes could wreak havoc in your body.
Unfortunately, most people do not have sufficient enzyme activity. Although the pancreas manufactures a certain limited number of enzymes for digestion, there is still a need to supplement the body with additional enzymes. Supplementary enzymes are generally acquired through the foods we eat — raw fruits and vegetables are packed with live active enzymes. However, these enzymes are easily destroyed when we cook, broil, bake, fry, poach, or even freeze our foods. The enzymes within the body are further depleted by stress, fatigue, chemical pollutants, and an extraordinarily strenuous exercise regime.
Why Green Papaya?
Green papaya is a tropical fruit that usually resembles a rather small, elongated melon. Its most interesting feature is that it contains the enzyme papain — a protein-digesting enzyme used as a digestive aid or a meat tenderizer.
Papain is the milky juice of the green papaya fruit. The enzyme papain is only found in papaya. Used internally, it is very effective in the treatment of indigestion, since it transforms proteins into peptones and albumoses by its proteolytic power. It has also been found to be helpful in gastric and intestinal indigestion.
As the green papaya ripens, the enzyme dissipates — so to get the highest level of enzyme activity, the green papaya is processed while still green.
