guava, health benefits, antioxidant, Anti-diabetic, Anti-Diarrhoeal, Anti-HypotensiveAbstract
Guava (Psidium guajava L.) has a very special place owing to its nutrient content. Guava (Psidium guajava L.) is used in subtropical areas around the world not only as food but also as folk medicine because of its pharmacological activities. Nature has given Guava many nutritional and medicinal properties that show it to be an incredible fruit. It (Psidium guajava) has Antioxidant, Anti-diabetic, Anti-Diarrhoeal, Anti-Hypotensive, Analgesic & Anta Inflammatory, Anticancer, Anti-Hypertensive, Anti-Pyretic and High Nutritional value. For the overall growth of horticulture, the production of Guava was crucial. The article includes the usefulness of guava for the production of functional foods in the food and milk industries. For making drinks, fruit leather, cheese, whey and wine processing, desserts etc., guava pulp can be used. This paper summarises comprehensive exploration of the manufacturing, types, health benefits, and processing of guava products.
