Twelve Points on Mature Green Papaya Powder

Compiled and Written by Dr. John Whitman Ray

1. Mature Green Papaya Powder as developed with a special process by the renowned researcher Dr. Kurt Koesel of Maui, Hawaii contains an excellent source of vitamins, minerals and enzymes. Mature Green Papaya Powder contains more Vitamin A than carrots, more Vitamin C than oranges, abundant B factors and Vitamin E. Mature Green Papaya Powder also contains a complex of enzymes that help digest proteins, carbohydrates and fats.

2. Papain is the principal and most active enzyme in the Mature Green Papaya Powder. Papain possesses a very powerful digestive action superior to pepsin and pancreatin. Changes in intestinal alkalinity or acidity do not interfere with the unique digestive activity of papain. Papain breaks down meat fibers, thereby rendering nutrients available to the digestive process. This emphasizes the need for papain in the diet of meat eaters as well as vegetarians.

Papain, one of the most powerful plant proteolytic enzymes, is a catalytic agent that will act in protein digestion in an acid, alkaline or neutral medium. This is of vital importance for those with enzyme deficiency problems as well as for those with low hydrochloric acid output in the stomach. Remember, the pepsin produced in the stomach required for protein digestion is activated only in an acid medium. This requires a healthy output of hydrochloric acid which is insufficient in most people. Due to the powerful proteolytic action of papain, a more active digestant than pepsin, a major digestive problem for most people will be helped by the daily ingestion of Mature Green Papaya Powder.

3. A major problem in our diets today is that we only partially digest the protein foods we consume. This is due in part to the insufficient hydrochloric acid output by the stomach. These partially digested proteins help contribute to mucoprotein buildup in the body. This is due to the undigested protein molecules making their their way into the system and eventually finding their way into the interstitial spaces and accumulating there as mucoprotein, a polysaccharide-protein combination. This mucoprotein is also known as trapped plasma protein. The proteolytic action of papain can digest the protein we consume so that the accumulation of trapped plasma protein can be prevented.

4. Mature Green Papaya Powder, which possesses antiseptic qualities, helps prevent the abnormal proliferation of undesirable bacteria in the intestines. The pH is then kept normalized with the addition of acidophilus which aids in normalizing the intestinal flora.

5. Papain, found abundantly in the Mature Green Papaya Powder, acts as a powerful mucus and pus solvent. Papain helps to cleanse the tissues and intestinal wall of all waste matter in the form of excessive mucus and dead tissue. Papain in the whole papaya or in the Mature Green Papaya Powder is harmless to living tissue and is a must for maintenance of health in the intestinal tract.

6. In scientific studies using papain as a digestant, it has been established that proteins are "actually chemically transformed into all the various amino acids that are so vital to human nutrition." Papain has the property to transform albumanoids into peptones in either an acid, alkaline or neutral medium, making it superior to pepsin.

7. Arginine, one of the essential amino acids, is not normally produced within the body, but must be obtained as a component of a few foods such as eggs and brewer's yeast. These foods must be eaten with some regularity if the reproductive organs are to function properly. However, when papain is allowed to act upon many kinds of protein it has a singular distinctive power of converting a portion of the protein mass to arginine, even in the intestine.

8. This unique ability of papain to break down protein and to convert a portion of it to arginine is extremely important because arginine in its natural form has been found to influence the production of the human growth hormone or HGH. HGH is produced in the pituitary gland and is directly responsible for DNA and RNA replication as well as synthesis in liver, muscle, cartilage and adipose tissues. Arginine ingested in connection with exercise has been found to raise the production of HGH significantly. This HGH helps to increase muscle tone and decrease the amount of body fat. Arginine has also been found to inhibit the growth of human breast cancer cells in test tube studies.

9. The papain in the Mature Green Papaya Powder works to break down various protein foods so that the individual amino acids are produced and autointoxicating or other undesirable undigested substances are avoided. High blood pressure, constipation, arthritis, epilepsy and diabetes are only a few of the ailments aggravated by incomplete protein digestion. While the presence of papain may not always prevent these abnormalities, it has the power to help regulate these abnormalities through proper digestion.

10. The Mature Green Papaya Powder contains several enzymes in addition to the papain used for protein digestion. Carbohydrate and fat digestion can be accomplished by the enzymes found in the Mature Green Papaya Powder. These papaya enzymes have the ability to infiltrate the tissues. By this means, it can help dissolve injured and hardened tissues, thus tending to alleviate hardening of the arteries.

11. (This is not in reference to the Mature Green Papaya Powder -- only to the latex -- but it is noteworthy research on other uses for papain) Dr. Manual Gomez de la Maza, Professor of Medicine at the University of Havana, established that "the milky sap of the papaya tree fruit digested the necrosed cartilage squeezed between the spinal vertebra." He also developed a remedy against tumors, including malignancies. In his books he described how it was possible to remove any tumor without surgery. The method consisted of injecting fresh papaya latex into the tumor and then after waiting 15 minutes, pumping out the resulting foul smelling mess, thus removing the tumor in a matter of minutes. The latex of the papaya containing papain has the property of digesting fibrin which makes up the mass of neoplasms, such as warts, fibromas and cancerous tumors. It also digests the fibrin which makes up the bulk of the callouses and corns on the feet and also the necrosed tissue squeezed between the vertebra in the back injuries such as "slipped disc." Thank you, Dr. Manual Gomez de la Maza for this valuable information.

12. Papaya is the only known food containing papain, the active principal enzyme in Mature Green Papaya Powder. Remember, it digests protein thoroughly and frees the amino acids for quick absorption by the body. Since it acts impartially in acid, neutral or alkaline mediums, it is extremely valuable for the aged or anyone who has weak digestion due to enzyme deficiencies developed over the years. These Twelve Points establish the Mature Green Papaya Powder as a superior food to ensure proper digestive activity.
