As a fruit and also more as an ideal vegetable, papaya is a coveted gift of Nature world-wide. It contains beta-carotine that is converted to vitamin-A by our body. Also it it excellent for digestive system and reduces constipation. Ripe papaya taken as fruit is more beneficial than raw papaya taken cooked! In my opinion, every family must grow its plant, at least five, with proper care to get papaya at hand throughout the year. Are you thinking so?

Papaya is also my liking vegetable as well as fruit. I always plan my diet with this item. It has no equal substitute, so far I know. Thank you.
