The therapeutic effects of papaya seeds

Eating papaya is also good for digestion and absorption. When you eat more eggs, meat, milk, and some difficult-to-digest foods at a banquet or at home, your stomach and intestines will feel uncomfortable. After eating papaya, the stomach and intestine discomfort will disappear. The reason is that the protein digestive enzyme in papaya is working. This enzyme can digest protein, which is beneficial for the body to digest and absorb food, so it has the function of strengthening the spleen and digesting food. In addition, if you eat too much meat, fat will accumulate in the lower body. At this time, after eating papaya, the enzyme in papaya will help break down meat, reduce the workload of the stomach and intestines, and make the fleshy legs slowly become more bony.
