What Is Papaya Extract?
Papaya (Carica papaya) fruit extract provides a convenient way to incorporate the fruit’s natural goodness into your daily routine. Each vegetarian capsule delivers 500 mg of pure extract, standardised to offer a reliable daily dose. Unlike fresh papaya, this extract is shelf-stable and easy to include in any wellness regimen.
Papaya is traditionally valued in Ayurvedic Practice and naturally contains vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin E, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, and iron. These nutrients contribute to the fruit’s reputation for supporting overall vitality.
Potential Benefits of Papaya Extract
According to Ayurveda, papaya is considered to have a warming energy and is used to help balance Vata and Kapha doshas. From a nutritional perspective, the nutrients in papaya support normal physiological functions:
-
Skin maintenance: Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation, which supports the normal function of skin. Vitamins A and E also contribute to the maintenance of normal skin.
-
Nutrient contribution: Papaya provides iron, which contributes to normal red blood cell formation, as well as calcium and phosphorus for normal bone health.
-
Antioxidant protection: Vitamins C and E contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
These statements describe the role of nutrients naturally present in papaya. The product is a food supplement and should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet.
