Guava is considered a super fruit with many medicinal properties. It was used in China for centuries to treat Diabetes, but recent studies show that eating guava with its skin increases blood sugar in rats by 91% where as when peeled it was only 27%. If your diabetes is controlled there won't be a problem in having the peeled one, but if not it's better to peel and eat it before it's too ripe .

However, do eat the guava because it has high vitamin C content of 120 mg or more compared to only 65 mg of orange. It is also less acidic and very high in fiber, vitamin A and potassium. This is a very nutritious and tasty fruit, just remember to take off the skin if your blood sugar is high.

It cures stomach problems, cleans teeth, controls bad breath and is very good for skin. It is also one of the foods recommended for diabetics on a daily basis along with apple, bitter guard and artichoke.
