Papain

The fruit of the solitary species in the genus Carica of the plant family Caricaceae is the papaya, often known as papaw or pawpaw. It is indigenous to the Americas’ tropics. A big, tree-like plant, the papaya has a single stem that can reach heights of 5 to 10 m (16 to 33 ft) and is covered in spirally arranged leaves only at the top of the trunk. The leaves are enormous, 50–70 cm in diameter, and have seven lobes that are deeply palmately lobed. Unless lopped, the tree is often unbranched. The leaves axils sprout blooms, which develop into substantial fruit. When the fruit is tender to the touch and has an amber to orange tint on its skin, it is ripe. These papaya nutritional benefits aid in stopping the oxidation of cholesterol. In addition to being a strong source of vitamins A, B, and G and vitamin C, papaya is also high in iron and calcium (ascorbic acid). Terpenoids, alkaloids, flavonoids, carbohydrates, glycosides, saponins, and steroids can be found in unripe C. papaya extracts.
