Here are evidence-based health benefits of guava fruits and leaves.
Some evidence suggests that guava can improve blood sugar control.
Several test-tube and animal studies found that guava leaf extract improved blood sugar levels, long-term blood sugar control, and insulin resistance (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
This is good news for people with diabetes or those at risk.
One study in 19 people noted that drinking guava leaf tea lowered blood sugar levels after a meal. The effects lasted up to two hours (3).
Another study in 20 people with type 2 diabetes found that drinking guava leaf tea reduced blood sugar levels after a meal by more than 10% (3).
Guavas may help boost heart health in a number of ways.
Many scientists believe that the high levels of antioxidants and vitamins in guava leaves may help protect your heart from damage by free radicals (6).
The higher levels of potassium and soluble fiber in guavas are also thought to contribute to improved heart health.
Additionally, guava leaf extract has been linked to lower blood pressure, a decrease in LDL cholesterol, and a rise in “good” HDL cholesterol (7).
Since high blood pressure and high levels of LDL cholesterol are linked to higher risks of heart disease and stroke, taking guava leaf extract could lead to valuable benefits.
A 12-week study in 120 people found that eating ripe guava before meals caused an overall decrease in blood pressure by 8–9 points, a reduction in total cholesterol by 9.9%, and an increase in “good” HDL cholesterol by 8% (8).
This same effect has been seen in several other studies (9,).
May Benefit Your Digestive System
Guavas are an excellent source of dietary fiber.
Eating more guavas may aid healthy bowel movements and prevent constipation.
Just one guava can provide 12% of your recommended daily intake of fiber (13).
Additionally, guava leaf extract may benefit digestive health. Studies suggest that it may reduce the intensity and duration of diarrhea (14, 15, 16).
Several studies have also shown that guava leaf extract is antimicrobial. This means that it can neutralize harmful microbes in the gut that can cause diarrhea (14, 17).
Guavas are a weight-loss food.
With only 37 calories in one fruit and 12% of recommended daily fiber intake, they are a filling, low-calorie fruit (13).
Guava fruits are packed with vitamins and minerals.
May Help Relieve Painful Symptoms of Menstruation
A study in 197 women who experienced painful symptoms found that taking 6 mg of guava leaf extract daily resulted in reduced pain intensity. It appeared to be even more powerful than some painkillers (11).
Guava leaf extract is also thought to help relieve uterine cramps (12).
Guava leaf extract has been shown to have an anticancer effect. Test-tube and animal studies show that guava extract can prevent and even stop the growth of cancer cell (18, 19).
This is likely due to the high levels of powerful antioxidants that prevent free radicals from damaging cells, one of the main causes of cancer (19).
One test-tube study found that guava leaf oil was four times more effective at stopping cancer cell growth than certain cancer drugs (20).
Further studies are needed before any claims can be made.
Low levels of vitamin C are linked to an increased risk of infections and illness.
Guavas are a fantastic way to get this nutrient, as they’re one of the riches food sources of food sources of vitamin C.
One guava provides about double the Reference Daily Intake (RDI) for vitamin C. This is almost twice the amount you would get from eating an orange (13).
Vitamin C plays an important role in maintaining a healthy immune system (21).
Although it’s not proven to prevent the common cold, vitamin C has been shown to reduce a cold’s duration (22).
It’s also linked to antimicrobial benefits. This means that it helps kill off bad bacteria and viruses that can lead to infections (21).
Eating Guavas May Be Good for Your Skin
The wide range of vitamins and antioxidants packed into a guava. Its antioxidants may protect skin from damage, which can slow down its aging process, helping prevent wrinkles (23).
Guava leaf extract may even help treat acne when applied directly to skin.
One test-tube study found that guava was effective at killing acne-causing bacteria — likely due to its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties (24).
