Health: Dengue Fever Remedy using Papaya Fruit
14 Jan 2009
I received an interesting e-mail today on a remedy for Dengue fever using the Papaya or also known as Papaw or Paw Paw (Australia) .. don’t know how true this is.. Read on to find out more..
I would like to share this interesting discovery from a classmate’s son who has just recovered from dengue fever. Apparently, his son was in the critical stage at the ICU when his blood platelet count drops to 15 after 15 liters of blood transfusion.
His father was so worried that he seeks another friend’s recommendation and his son was saved. He confessed to me that he gave his son raw juice of the papaya leaves. From a platelet count of 45 after 20 liters of blood transfusion, and after drinking the raw papaya leaf juice, his platelet count jumps instantly to 135. Even the doctors and nurses were surprised. After the second day he was discharged. So he asked me to pass this good news around.
Accordingly it is raw papaya leaves, 2pcs just cleaned and pound and squeeze with filter cloth. You will only get one tablespoon per leaf. So two tablespoon per serving once a day. Do not boil or cook or rinse with hot water, it will loose its strength. Only the leafy part and no stem or sap. It is very bitter and you have to swallow it like “Won Low Kat”. But it works.
Papaya Juice - Cure for Dengue
You may have heard this elsewhere but if not I am glad to inform you that papaya juice is a natural cure for dengue fever. As dengue fever is rampant now, I think it’s good to share this with all.
A friend of mine had dengue last year. It was a very serious situation for her as her platelet count had dropped to 28,000 after 3 days in hospital and water has started to fill up her lung. She had difficulty in breathing. She was only 32-year old. Doctor says there’s no cure for dengue. We just have to wait for her body immune system to build up resistance against dengue and fight its own battle. She already had 2 blood transfusion and all of us were praying very hard as her platelet continued to drop since the first day she was admitted.
Fortunately her mother-in-law heard that papaya juice would help to reduce the fever and got some papaya leaves, pounded them and squeeze the juice out for her. The next day, her platelet count started to increase, her fever subside. We continued to feed her with papaya juice and she recovered after 3 days!!!
Amazing but it’s true. It’s believed one’s body would be overheated when one is down with dengue and that also caused the patient to have fever papaya juice has cooling effect. Thus, it helps to reduce the level of heat in one’s body, thus the fever will go away. I found that it’s also good when one is having sore throat or suffering from heat.
Please spread the news about this as lately there are many dengue cases. It’s great if such natural cure could help to ease the sufferings of dengue patients.
Furthermore it’s so easily available. Blend them and squeeze the juice! It’s simple and miraculously effective!!

Papaya fruit also contain bromelain in their seeds, and this is a powerful digestive enzyme which can help kick start your gut micro-organisms. The flesh of the papaya fruit is also high in vitamin C and other potent antioxidants, so I guess we have a true medicinal plant here!
It’s very helpful information for all. Papaya is also helpful for digestion.
what are some good cooking recipes using papaya?
I do not have experience with dengue but I do know that after i read the above email a few years ago I encouraged two of my friends to use dried papaya leaf instead. They used it successfully to help with very low platelet counts. Both of them were in bad shape and needed to have a rise in platelets immediately. The doctors had not been able to help them. They made a tea out of the dried leaf using 1/2 papaya and 1/2 peppermint to make it taste better. Use 1/4 cup of the tea mix. Steep it in a quart of boiling water. Turn off heat. Let it set for 20 minutes and then strained and sweetened and chilled it. Since this was not the fresh plant and it was a water infusion, they drank a quart of the tea for awhile. In both cases the platelets came up quickly in the next week. They had both been under drs care and taking medicine to no avail. I would love to hear if this works for others who have dengue or platelet problems. In the tropics I would recommend the fresh juice, elsewhere the tea. If you any of you have the same result, please email me at myronweaver2@gmail.com
We are using this along with teasel root extract and a few other things to help with Lyme and having surprising results.
