FAQ
Papaya is a great food that can promote numerous health benefits for the body. It provides some essential vitamins and can promote gut health as well as act as an antioxidant.
You can, but the amount of clear juice that would come out wouldn't be that much so it is better to make the juice in a smoothie maker or blender.
Nutritionally speaking, you can drink it any time of the day but it might be best to do so on an empty stomach, ideally in the morning for maximum absorption and health benefits.
