Papain is a mixture of proteolytic enzymes derived from the fruits of papaya and certain other plants. It helps catalyze several chemical reactions within the cells, particularly digestive enzymes. Papain acts by mildly soothing the stomach and aids in the digestion of protein. It relieves heartburn, indigestion, treat ulcer, and regulates the acidity in the stomach. In fact, Papain is often used tenderizer for meat. It is also an effective anti-inflammatory agent. It is also used to dissolve membranes in diphtheria and reduce fever, swelling and adhesion. Topically, it is used to cure boils, warts and freckes, and to treat burns and sore throat. Papain also has anticarcinogenic properties.

Papaya Fruit is of the plant carica papaya in the genus carica and is the first fruit tree to have its genome deciphered. It is often called “paw paw” or “big melon” and tastes similar to peaches and pineapples without the tartness.

It also contains some Vitamin E, magnesium, niacin, foliate, phosphorous, potassium, lipids and amino acids. Green papaya fruit and the latex of its tree have an enzyme called papain, which is a protease that is useful in tenderizing meats.
