AND AID TO SLIMMING
The fig tree grows in the tropics and sub-tropics and its flowers are borne inside a pear shaped receptacle.
Fig tree latex contains ficin, which increases the action of miscellaneous digestive enzymes such as lipase, amylase, pancrease, fat and starch disgesting catalysts.
Extract of fig tree is therefore helpful during diets for slimming. |
