Description

Guava (Psidium guajava L., Myrtaceae) is a rich source of relatively low methoxylated pectins (50%). Since wastes constitute only 10–15% of the fruit, the use of guava for pectin production is limited. The seeds, usually discarded during processing of juice and pulp, contain about 5–13% oil rich in essential fatty acids.
Recent investigations indicated that peel and pulp of guava fruits could be effectively used as a source of antioxidant dietary fiber.
