Papaya Shrinks Prostate Cancer
Risk by 63 percent and that’s the benefit seen by men in this study when they
ate 390 grams of papaya per week that’s half a large papaya and carries just
200 calories. How does papaya provide such health benefits? It is an extremely rich
source of the three anti-cancer super nutrients beta-carotene, lycopene and
beta-cryptoxanthin all are well popular to decrease prostate cancer risk and
breast cancer. But there’re somewhat special about papaya, because researchers freshly
discovered that our bodies absorb those vital nutrients far better from papaya
than from other sources like carrots or tomatoes and in fact, up to 300 percent
better.
But question is how it is that
possible? The answer is very interesting: this wonderful fruit stores these
nutrients in exclusive micro-crystalline structures which greatly enhance their
availability upon digestion. Papaya is also very rich in potassium, and is
therefore one of the most alkalizing fruits available: however; it is in fact has
nearly double (175%) the alkalizing power of pure lemon juice. It is a great as
a smoothie all on its own, added to smoothies with more than a few other fruit
or vegetables, or just with yogurt on top for breakfast. This low-calorie super
fruit deserves distinctive consideration as part of any healthy, fruit and
vegetable centered diet meant to improve health and reduce cancer risk.
