Papaya is one of the most anti-inflammatory fruits recommended by Doctors and other practitioners before and after undergoing aesthetic and cosmetic treatments. It is rich in Vitamin C & A A and can help prevent cardiovascular diseases, obesity, and even hypertension.
Not only can it do wonders for your skin but also your hair but it can also be used as a mask and will provide shine and make your hair smooth.
