Papaya Storage:

Ripe papayas should be refrigerated to slow down the ripening process. Papayas will ripen within a few days at room temperature, and even faster if you put them in a paper bag. Once ripe, this fruit will quickly turn to mush if not properly stored.

Place ripe, whole fruit in a plastic bag in the refrigerator, and it should last about a week.

To freeze, peel the papaya, slice lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Cut into pieces and pack into rigid containers or heavy duty plastic freezer bags. Cover with a 30 percent sugar solution (4 cups water to 2 cups sugar) and freeze up to ten months.



 Raw Papaya:

   Raw papaya is found to be effective in treating loose motions. It will help in easing stomach
   pain as well as reduce stomach cramps.

• Grate a raw papaya and put in a bowl that contains three cups of water.

• Boil the raw papaya in water for about 10 minutes.

• Strain the water and drink it once it becomes warm.

• Drink this two to three times a day till you feel a reduction in loose motion.
