Guava also known as Peru/Jamfal/Amarud in India, it has lots of name. It is very easily available in whole year. In particular, I love guava fruit as it relates to my childhood memories. Actually, there was huge tree of guava in my grandparents’ house backyard. It was a huge tree and on season, and always fully loaded with guava fruit. At that time, I used to eat this fruit fresh direct from the tree, just cut it and sprinkle some salt and chilli powder over it, and that’s it, eating strait a way from nature… yummy…still I love to eat this fruit that way.

Guava is very helpful for those who want to lose weight without compromising their intake of proteins, vitamins and fiber. Guava is very high in roughage and rich in vitamins, proteins and minerals, but it has no cholesterol and a low number of digestible carbohydrates. It is a is very filling snack and satisfies the appetite very easily.
