Our heroine from ecuador's mountains

The Babaco papaya is our heroine from the highlands of Ecuador. These trees flourish at elevations of up to 3,500 metres in the Andes, rooted in fertile volcanic soil naturally rich in minerals and exposed to intense sunlight. This unique papaya variety is native to Ecuador — it grows exclusively in this region and truly belongs here. The volcanic earth offers a wide range of nutrients and rare trace elements that are increasingly scarce in modern soils. Choosing this special cultivation area was a conscious decision. In these ideal conditions, our Babaco papayas thrive and naturally absorb the diverse nutrients from the soil, developing their full potential under optimal climate conditions.

The Indigenous People Call It the "Health Melon"

Among local communities, the babaco papaya is traditionally known as the “health melon” or “medicine tree.” In its unripe phase — during the first 6 to 8 months — the fruit has a dark green skin. Inside, the white fruit pulp is naturally rich in the enzyme papain.

Harvesting at the Right Time Is Key

Our smallholder farmers intuitively recognise the ideal moment for harvesting. Each fruit is hand-picked with care — only when it has reached peak papain content. During its growth phase, the enzyme-rich juice helps the fruit resist spoilage and natural threats. As the babaco matures, it undergoes a visible transformation: once the skin turns yellow, the inner pulp becomes reddish and sweet. While delicious at this stage, the enzyme content is significantly reduced.

Enzyme-rich fruit fibre food from the Babaco papaya

The Babaco papaya contains a variety of nutrients essential for a healthy life.

Enzymes – The Key to Vitality

Just as the babaco papaya relies on its natural enzyme mix for protection and healthy development, humans also depend on enzymes for countless vital functions. All metabolic processes in the body require sufficient enzyme activity to function properly. Scientific findings show that enzyme production in the body decreases with age and stress. That’s why it makes sense to include enzyme-rich foods in your daily routine.

Our cultivation of babaco papaya reflects this understanding. BABACOVERA® provides natural, enzyme-rich, high-fibre fruit powder. Papain, a proteolytic enzyme contained in green papaya, helps break down proteins into amino acids — supporting normal digestive processes. This enables efficient nutrient absorption and helps the body eliminate metabolic waste more effectively.

Pure, Enzyme-Rich Fruit Powder

BABACOVERA® is a natural, untreated fruit powder made from 90% whole green babaco papaya and 10% finely milled carica papaya seeds. It is naturally free from gluten and lactose. As part of a balanced diet rich in fruit and vegetables, we recommend chewing BABACOVERA® daily — whether at home, at work, or on the go. It’s a convenient way to add more plant vitality to your day.

Make BABACOVERA® a regular part of your nutritional routine. Chew ¼ teaspoon of the fruit powder several times a day, between meals or after eating. Allow it to mix well with saliva before swallowing. BABACOVERA® naturally increases thirst — so remember to drink plenty of water.

High in the Andes, the trees grow at an altitude of 3,500 metres.

Interesting to know

The volcano Tungurahua is only five km away from our cultivation area. It “spits” out volcanic ash regularly, which is not entirely without danger. But the local people and our farmer families are used to living with an active volcano, to which they ascribe magical powers.

The volcano’s constant rumbling and shaking can be heard and felt at our cultivation area. When we visit, we need to get used to this too, and sometimes we need to overcome our mild fear. Washing that we hang outside to dry is black with ash the following morning.

This, however, is also greatly beneficial: the earth is and will remain highly fertile.
