The Magic of Papaya Enzymes
Papain Other names: Carica papaya, vegetable pepsin.

Uses
Papain, an enzyme produced by the tropical fruit, papaya, is proteolytic, which means that it digests inert (non-living) proteins. While it breaks down proteins in foods, it will not harm living tissue in the body. Because it improves digestion in general, papain has also been used orally to treat less serious digestion disorders such as bloating and chronic indigestion.

In several studies in cancer patients, oral enzyme supplements containing papain helped to relieve treatment side effects such as mouth sores and difficulty swallowing. Additionally, chemicals in papain may increase the function of the immune system and they may also promote the release of natural chemicals that attack tumour cells. Papain may lessen overall inflammation as well.

In other research, some evidence shows that they may help to prevent complications of diabetes, possibly by lessening protein deposits in the kidneys. Proteolytic enzymes such as papain may also decrease pain and inflammation associated with rheumatoid arthritis, improve healing of injuries and reduce swelling after surgery.

Summary
Papain is a proteolytic (protein-reducing) enzyme that is included in oral replacement drugs for individuals who do not produce digestive enzymes naturally. It is also used for digestive conditions such as indigestion. Papain may be taken orally to relieve inflammation and to improve healing. Additionally, it is being studied for relief of cancer therapy side effects, diabetes complications, and rheumatoid arthritis. Papain may be applied to the skin to help burns and other injuries heal.
