The average person may not have heard about the fruit of the paw paw tree which has a great banana flavor. It is more commonly called Indian Banana but it also has the tropical flavors of mango and pineapple. The paw paw tree is found growing abundantly in the eastern United States and has been recorded in medicinal use since the 1500s. While the fruit is indeed tasty and nutritious, it is the bark, leaves, and twig tissues that contain powerful cancer fighting properties, most notably acetogenins.
In order for cancer to survive and thrive, it depends upon several factors including the growth of blood vessels. Acetogenins slow this growth. The paw paw tree contains the most potent source of acetogenins known. However, it is only during a certain time of year that the bark, leaves, and twigs of the paw paw tree contain the high levels of potency needed to fight cancer.
For those undergoing surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation for cancer, quite a few reported the addition of paw paw helped to reduce cancer marker levels and helped reduce the side effects of treatments like hair loss, infection, and GI bleeding.
On top of all of this, paw paw has been noted to help with digestion due to its papain content, repair skin tissue, improve immune function, eliminate parasites, and support healthy blood sugar levels.
But, as always, work with your health care professional.
