Guava is often marketed as ‘‘super-fruits’’ which has a considerable nutritional importance in terms of vitamins A and C with seeds that are rich in omega-3, omega-6 poly-unsaturated fatty
acids and especially dietary fiber, riboflavin, as well as in proteins, and mineral salts. The vitamin C in guava makes absorption of vitamin E much more effective in reducing the oxidation of the LDL cholesterol and increasing the (good) HDL cholesterol. The fibers
in guavas promote digestion and ease bowel movements. The high content of vitamin A in guava plays an important role in maintaining the quality and health of eye-sight, skin, teeth, bones and the mucus membranes [2]. The anti-oxidant virtue in guavas [3] is believed to help reduce the risk of cancers of the stomach, esophagus, larynx, oral cavity and pancreas.
