About Guavas, common, raw
Guava is a fragrant tropical fruit with green or yellow skin and flesh that ranges from white to deep pink, dotted with small edible seeds. Intensely aromatic and sweet-tart, it's eaten whole, blended into juices and nectars, or cooked into the dense paste so popular in Latin American sweets.
Few fruits can match it for vitamin C — guava often holds several times more than an orange — and it's exceptionally high in fiber too, with vitamin A, folate and potassium. The pink-fleshed varieties add lycopene, the same antioxidant found in tomatoes.
Eaten skin, seeds and all, guava is one of the most nutrient-dense fruits there is — a genuine vitamin C powerhouse hiding in an unassuming package.
