Pawpaw is a fruit beloved for both its delicious flavor and exceptional nutrient profile. Unfortunately, many people often discard its seeds and favor the fruit’s sweet flesh. What they don’t realize is that the seeds are not only edible but also highly nutritious. Below are some health benefits of pawpaw seeds.
1. May protect kidney function
Your kidneys play an integral role in your health, acting as a filter to remove waste and excess fluid from your body. Eating pawpaw seeds could protect and preserve the health and function of your kidneys. Pawpaw seeds are also rich in antioxidants, which can block oxidative damage to your cells and protect kidney health.
2. May improve digestive health
Like other seeds, pawpaw seeds are a good source of fiber. Fiber moves through your gastrointestinal tract undigested, adding bulk to your stools to promote regularity. Increasing your fiber intake may improve several other aspects of digestive health as well.
