Increasing the portions of fruits and vegetables in your regular diet can help you lose weight. Papaya, which is a store house of anti oxidants and vitamins, is excellent to burn that extra flab.

Ripe papaya is extremely sweet and pulpy, while you could make a delicious thoran (stir fry) using raw papaya. The high fibre content in it makes sure that the fruit doesn’t contain calories.

Consuming papaya regularly helps reduce the bad cholesterol and maintain the level of good cholesterol. Besides, the papaya seeds too have incredible medicinal properties. It is an amazing food that flushes out toxins from your body. Papaya is light on the stomach and eases digestion as well.

You could either eat fresh papaya or make a tasty and nutritious smoothie by blending it with some chilled milk.
