PAPAYA: Close up view of a tropical papaya fruit isolated on a white background.

Papaya is one of the most nutrient dense and healing fruits on the planet. It is extremely high in beta carotene, vitamins C & A, and minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, potassium, and iron. It is a phenomenal fruit for helping to heal any type of digestive disorder such as constipation, acid reflux, colitis, pancreatitis, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcers, celiac’s disease, H.pylori, diverticulitis, indigestion, bloating, flatulence, and stomach upset. Papaya has a soothing, cleansing effect on the digestive tract and gently removes toxic debris while decreasing swelling and inflammation. Its high nutrient value also provides the body with all the essential vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, protein, and essential fatty acids it needs to rebuild muscles, tissues, bones, and organs. Papaya contains potent anti-viral and antiinflammatory properties and can provide significant relief for those suffering with joint pain, shingles, chicken pox, arthritis, colds, flu, and autoimmune disorders such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, lyme disease, lupus, and cardiovascular disease. Papaya is also an excellent food for the convalescing and can help rebuild the body after a long illness or from being bedridden. If consumed regularly, papaya will greatly improve skin, hair, and nails and keep eye’s bright and clear. The black seeds inside the papaya are completely edible and can act as an effective vermicide or worm/ parasite remover. 
PAPAYA: papaya
The black seeds are peppery and when eaten with the sweet papaya taste like a spicy-hot cinnamon candy. The seeds are an excellent digestive aid and contain more enzymes than a whole bottle of digestive enzyme capsules, plus the fresh seeds have all the nutrients necessary for almost instant assimilation. Ripe papaya is delicious with a fresh squeeze of lime and can also be made into a healing and soothing pudding by simply blending the ripe papaya flesh until smooth. There are two major varieties of papayas on the market today: the big football-size Maradol papayas and the small hand-size solo or strawberry papayas. The large Maradol papaya variety contains the most nutrition and healing properties and are NOT GMO. The smaller varieties are sometimes grown GMO and should be avoided when possible. Maradol papayas can often be found year-round in supermarkets, health food stores, and speciality produce stores. 



AVOCADO

"According to researchers, the same lutein and zeaxanthin content that enables avocado to protect eye health also inhibits Helicobacter pylori— 13"   Avocados Super-Enhanced Carotenoid Absorption
Abstract

Chronic infection by Helicobacter pylori produce chronic gastritis leading to other more severe pathologies as peptic ulcer and gastric adenocarcinoma. New anti-H. pylori agents has been found in natural products, particularly polyphenols. The inhibition of enzymes such us urease appears to be an interesting strategy by which polyphenols could limit the colonization by H. pylori. From the exocarp of Persea americana (avocado fruit), we obtain a procyanidin-rich extract with a 77% of gallic acid equivalents (GAE). Such procyanidins derived from epicatechin. with a mean degree of polymerization DPm = 6.10. The antioxidant capacity was assessed by different methods as TEAC-DPPH, TEAC-CUPRAC, TEAC-FRAP, TEAC-crocin. The extract shown inhibitory activity against H. pylori urease with an IC(50) = 1.02 mu g GAE/mL. In order to obtain clusters of procyanidins with different molecular weights, avocado peel extract was fractioned. A clear relation between the molecular size of procyanidins and their urease inhibitory activity was observed.
