Guest guest Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 I buy fresh papaya at Whole Foods and we all eat it - including my 11 month old son. It seems like a perfect food for little toddlers b/c when ripe it is nice and soft. It has a wonderful flavor and is also good with lime.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 Papaya is a beautiful fruit and i do love it.i blend it with mango for my 9months old daughter.It is high in Amines(which is not so good for people that react to it),low in salicylate.it does not contain monosodium gluamate (which some children react to). Also another fruit you might want to consider is mango It is moderate in salicylate but does not contain Amine nor monosodium glutamate. Like papaya, it is rich in vitamine A which helps heal the gut and prevents the attachment of harmful bacterias and some viruses like measles to the gut especially in children. Also English pear is good.for some reason,fungi cannot feed on its sugar. Below is the nutritional value of papaya compared to other fruites.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 I feed a lot of fresh papaya to my 11 month old son as well. Honestly I wouldn't use it " instead of " enzymes. I know it couldn't tackle my daughter's issues that for sure (leaky leaky gut); but for those who tolerate it, it is a terrific part of a healthy diet - rich in antioxidants and enzymes and tastes so great.
