VARIOUS DIETS AND TREATMENTS – PAPAIN – ITS ORIGIN AND USES (PAPAYASAN)
Papayasan contains papain in combination with the ingredients of the whole plant. It can therefore act in the same way as the whole plant provided by nature and taking it is the equivalent of eating the unripe fruit with its rich papain content.
Every doctor, nature practitioner and pharmacist, as well as every caring mother, will no doubt be glad to know that there is at last a worm medicine that is absolutely safe. According to the third edition of Professor Eichholz’s Pharmakologie (Pharmacology), even experts regard the usual worm medicines as risky and far from harmless, for he writes: ‘The toxicity of all anthelmintic medicines should prompt the prescriber to consider whether it is preferable to tolerate the presence of parasites, rather than to take the risk of poisoning the patient.’ If this is of concern to pharmacologists and pharmacists, how much more should it make the patient think. However, with a papaya preparation no one need fear, for it is beneficial to the digestion, assisting in the assimilation of proteins, and is absolutely harmless – even for pregnant women and people with weak constitutions.
