New Delhi, May 2, 2020, Saturday

Fruits are very important because they are soft and sweet and can be easily consumed by children and the elderly, but research has claimed that consuming large quantities of papaya is harmful to health. It is said in Ayurveda that it is important to know what is the result of consuming more papaya as it is forbidden everywhere. According to a recent research, excessive consumption of papaya has some negative effects on the body in addition to skin related diseases. There is a disease called carotenemia. This is a condition in which the skin changes color and turns strangely yellow.

According to the NCBI, the main cause of carotenemia is high intake of beta-carotene. Beta carotene is high in papaya, so it is important to consume papaya in moderation. People who have a respiratory illness or problem should not consume too much papaya.

A study by the National Center for Biotechnology Information found that people with asthma, especially those with asthma, should reduce their use of papaya because consuming papaya increases the risk of allergies in people with shortness of breath. The fiber in papaya helps a lot in digestion but it also causes some stomach related problems. Consuming too much can also cause stomach pain. In addition to papaya consumption, it is also used as a face pack on the face because papaya contains the enzyme papain. According to the NCBI, excessive consumption of the enzyme can cause allergies in people with sensitive skin.
