Guava Leaf Tea

HEALTH BENEFITS OF GUAVA LEAF

Intestinal Benefits
Guava leaves contain natural phytochemicals, including antioxidants carotenoids, anthocyanin, and flavonoids, which have natural antibiotic activity to kill pathogens responsible for poor intestinal health.

Heart Health
Compounds in guava leaves help to reduce blood pressure and allows the heart to pump at an ideal rate. Research also showed that drinking guava leaf tea also improves blood lipids, which helps to lower blood cholesterol and unhealthy triglycerides in people.

Anti Diabetes
The flavonoids and other compounds in guava leaves keep your blood sugar low after you eat a high-carbohydrate meal. It does this by inhibiting several different enzymes that convert carbohydrate in the digestive tract into glucose, potentially slowing its uptake into your blood. Several clinical trials conducted in Japan show guava tea’s anti-diabetic action, showing that drinking the tea regularly helped lower after-eating blood glucose in subjects with Type 2 diabetes, compared to similar subjects who didn’t consume the tea.
