... Guava contains fibrous ingredients such as stone cells and seeds, besides, 7.6% protein, 16.0% fat, 61.4% fiber, and 0.93% ash (Prasad and Azeemoddin, 1994;Khalifa, 2014). The chemical analysis of guava showed presence of foliage volatile oils such as -pinene (11.77%), 1,8-cineol (9.22%), globular (5.88%), hexenal (5.03%), epi-bisabolol (10.85%), 1-epi-cubenol (4.56%), and terpineol 4.35% (Ramadan et al., 2009).
