NATIONAL PAPAYA MONTH
Coined the “fruit of the angels” by Christopher Columbus, papayas continue to offer their heavenly taste to people all around the world. The fruit is available all year round yet every year in September, we celebrate National Papaya Month. Loaded with rich nutrients and antioxidants, papayas are rich in vitamins A, C, and E, as well as potassium, calcium, and iron. A small papaya contains about 300 percent of the daily-recommended vitamin C. Moreover, papayas calm inflammation of the body, and support healthy digestion. Enjoy this delectable treat and savor the refreshing taste of the tropics.
Did you know? The proteins and amino acids found in the pulp can make your hair thicker, stronger, and healthier. You can help fix your split ends by simply adding more of this fruit into your diet, or by applying it directly to the hair. Switch to Papaya Conditioner!
The enzyme papain, found in the skin of papayas, works as a great exfoliant. This enzyme helps to remove dead skin cells from the top layer of skin — leaving it looking fresh and revitalized.
Papayas contain enzymes that aid in digestion and help to balance the acids in our stomach. They can relieve nausea and help take away the side effects of morning sickness.
The nutrients found in papaya help relieve symptoms in those suffering from conditions made worse by inflammation, such as asthma or rheumatoid arthritis. Also, papaya helps to keep eyes bright and protected — while also fighting cataracts. Papaya is a source of beta-carotene, carotenoids lutein, and zeaxanthin, which protect against high-intensity blue light and reduce the onset of age related macular degeneration.
And look at their beautiful flowers!

It's funny because in the story I'm writing, papaya became a sort of extended metaphor. I haven't eaten it often and usually forget what it tastes like (I confuse it with mango for whatever reason).
I love your entry!! Beautiful!!
