GUAVA by @charissa_and_co_wellness ——————————————————— Previously, I never really consumed guava fruit much, but recently I have become rather fond of this fruit & it’s versatility in flavour it has to offer, especially when either squeezing a bit of lemon juice or even some delicious passionfruit pulp onto it. ——————————————————— Guavas are high in antioxidants, along with vitamin C, potassium & fiber. Guavas are high in potassium as well as soluble fiber, allowing to support & nourish our body by fighting off oxidative stress within the bodies cells but also allowing for the increase of HDL (good cholesterol within the body). ——————————————————— Guava leaf extract is known as a antimicrobial. Antimicrobial sources neutralize harmful microbes within our guts. Therefore increasing gut health & overall peristalsis when it comes to food digestion. ——————————————————— As it’s a Low GI fruit with lower calories & high in fiber, it allows the body to achieve that state of satiety. Therefore the ideal snack to have. ——————————————————— #healthandwellness #charissa_and_co_wellness #vegan #veganblog #veganstory #feedfeed #guava #recipeshare #fruit #feedfeedvegan #healthandwellnesscoach #vegan_share #fruitideas #plantbased #veganrecipes #fruit #acai #receitasfit #veganfood #plantbaseddiet #lowGI #fruitbowl #fruit #rawfood #antioxidants #planteater #vegano #veganfoodshare #fruitbowl #fitnessfood #plantathlete https://www.instagram.com/p/BtQcv5CB5Xl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ryvswvfedjrv
