Why should you buy rough guava?

Kiều Vũ (theo Journal of Medicinal Food) |

Guava fruit is often considered unattractive because of its rough appearance, and may even be overlooked in fruit selections at the market.

But recent scientific studies have shown that the rough guava can provide many superior health benefits and is actually a better choice than the smooth-skinned guava. These characteristics stem from the nutritional composition and antioxidants found in the rough guava, especially its ability to support the immune system and protect cardiovascular health.

One of the reasons why the rough guava is so special is because of its higher antioxidant content than the smooth-skinned guava. According to research published in the journal Food Research International, rough guava contains higher levels of vitamin C, flavonoids, and polyphenols. These substances have powerful antioxidant effects, helping the body minimize cell damage caused by free radicals, thereby preventing chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. In fact, rough guava provides a huge amount of vitamin C, 5 times more than oranges, a common source of vitamin C.

In addition, the rough guava fruit is also known for its ability to support digestion and regulate blood sugar. The extract from the rough guava fruit has the effect of improving digestive function thanks to the rich amount of fiber in the fruit. This fiber helps reduce constipation, improve bowel movements and maintain digestive health. Moreover, guava also contains compounds that help control blood sugar, especially for patients with diabetes. Guava extract can also help reduce blood sugar levels and improve insulin resistance in diabetics.

Guava also contains important minerals such as potassium, magnesium, and folate. Potassium is important in maintaining stable blood pressure, while magnesium helps protect cardiovascular function. Supplementing these minerals from guava may help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Scientific studies have confirmed that rough guava is not only beneficial for the immune system but also helps protect the cardiovascular system and improve the digestive system. Therefore, choosing rough guava is a simple way to supplement nutrition and improve health.
