Papaya shows limited digestive benefits
We explored the impact of Caricol®, a papaya preparation, on digestive issues, particularly constipation. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, volunteers suffering from chronic indigestion took either Caricol® or a placebo for 40 days.
Although participants reported significant improvements in constipation and bloating, these benefits did not persist after a washout phase. There was no substantial effect on heartburn due to the limited number of cases. Overall, while Caricol® showed promise, its long-term efficacy remains uncertain.
