History of Papaya.
Papaya is native to tropical America, from Southern Mexico through the Andes of South America. It was spread to the south by Indians, and throughout the Caribbean with Spanish exploration. The Spanish also carried it to Europe and the Pacific Islands. By the mid 17th century, papaya was distributed pantropical.
Papaya was introduced to Hawaii in the 1800s, and Hawaii remains the only state in the USA to produce papaya commercially. A small industry developed in Florida in the first part of the 20th century, but declined rapidly with the introduction of viral diseases that today threaten papaya elsewhere. In fact, the recent decline of the Hawaiian industry was caused primarily by the same pathogen that destroyed plants in Florida – papaya ringspot virus. However, the disease was overcome by biotechnologists at the University of Hawaii, who inserted a gene into the ‘Sunrise’ cultivar that conferred resistance to the virus. This made the papaya the first genetically modified fruit crop used for human consumption. Since 1998, most of the papaya acreage in Hawaii has been changed to genetically modified cultivars.
Skin Benefits
When used topically, mashed papaya appears to be beneficial for promoting wound healing and preventing infection of burned areas.
Researchers believe that the proteolytic enzymes chymopapain and papain in papaya are responsible for their beneficial effects.
Ointments containing the papain enzyme have also been used to treat decubitus ulcers (bedsores)
Hair Health
Hair Health
Papaya is also great for hair because it contains vitamin A, a nutrient required for sebum production, which keeps hair moisturized.
Vitamin A is also necessary for the growth of all bodily tissues, including skin and hair. Adequate intake of vitamin C, which papaya can provide, is needed for the building and maintenance of collagen, which provides structure to skin.
Special Precautions & Warnings:
Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Papaya is POSSIBLY UNSAFE when taken by mouth during pregnancy. Do not take papaya by mouth in medicinal amounts if you are pregnant. There is some evidence that unprocessed papain, one of the chemicals found in papaya, might poison the fetus or cause birth defects. Not enough is known about the safety of papaya during breast feeding. It is best to avoid taking it in amounts higher than normal food amounts.
Diabetes: Papaya that has been fermented can lower blood sugar. People with diabetes who are taking medications to lower their blood sugar should pay close attention to their blood sugar as adjustments to medications might be needed.
