What are the benefits of eating papaya?

Papaya not only has a mouth-watering pulp, but also a wealth of nutritional value. In addition, for people with poor gastrointestinal function, papaya also has a digestive effect. The protein in the meat we eat must be broken down into amino acids before it can be absorbed by the human body, the human body decomposes protein mainly by the pepsin secreted by the stomach and trypsin secreted by the pancreas.

The emulsion juice in papaya contains a protein-decombing enzyme called papaya enzyme, which, like pepsin and trypsin, breaks down proteins, so it helps us digest meat proteins. Before frying steak, the "loose meat powder" or "tender essence" we commonly use contains papaya enzyme, which is used to break down the connective tissue and protein of the meat, making the meat more tender and delicious. According to this reason, if you use papaya stew, the meat will be more tender and delicious.

In addition to aiding digestion, papaya enzyme also breaks down and removes aging stratum corneum from the skin's surface.
