What this means for your health
What is in it

What it means for your health
Guavas provide a good source of vitamin C, which supports the immune system. The dietary fiber in guavas may help with digestion and promote a feeling of fullness. Potassium is important for heart health and muscle function. However, the high sugar content means guavas should be eaten in moderation, especially for those watching their sugar intake.
Good to know
Studies suggest that high sugar intake may be linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. Guavas are a natural source of sugar, so portion control is important. This is general education, not medical advice.
