The tropical magic called guava

Labels: , , , , , , Posted by Vina Revi on Tuesday, June 26, 2007 at 10:57 AM



Imagine a glass of iced pink guava juice on a hot sticky day!
Very tempting for sure ...

But there is a lot more about it.
Guava comes laden with vitamin C, fiber and potassium, the three players to help combat heart disease and hypertension.


A medium size guava offers a staggering 275% of our vitamin C needs, 20% of our fiber needs, a load of potassium all in an only 45 calories.


In a 12-week study, a group of participants were asked to eat 4-7 guavas a day.

The result was stunning!

Cholesterol level dropped an immense 10% translating to 20% reduction in heart disease. HDL went up while the blood pressure fell.
Is there any better combination you can ask for a glass of guava juice?
