Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Dried Guava
Metabolic Effect: Dried guava is a more concentrated source of energy than fresh guava, and its fiber content provides a feeling of satiety. However, it may have a higher sugar content as it loses water during the drying process.
Consumption Suggestion: You can consume dried guava as a snack or to satisfy your sweet cravings. Be sure to consume it in small portions and do not neglect to drink water with it.
Things to Consider: Due to its high sugar content, diabetics and those who want to control their weight should consume it carefully. A handful of dried guava may contain calories equivalent to a serving of fruit.
Exercise Equivalent: You may need to walk for about 55 minutes to burn the calories from dried guava. This may vary depending on the amount consumed and your metabolic rate.
