ABSTRACT
The well-known tropical tree Psidium guajava, also known as guava, is extensively grown for its fruit. It is a member of the family Mytraceae, class Magnoliopsida, and phylum Magnoliophyta. Psidium guajava linn, or guava, is the biological source of this fruit. Guava's chemical makeup is high in minerals, such as vitamins A and C, which are 36 times more abundant in guavas than in oranges of the same sample weight. Alkaloids are confirmed by phytochemical investigations of guava leaf extracts. The precise kinds and concentrations of alkaloids in guava, as well as their possible roles in health advantages, require further investigation. Guava employs phytoconstituents, which are employed to make all parts of the plant and produce clinical purposes. Every plant portion that is utilised in guava GS, HPLC, MS, FTIR, NMR, and DSC is a phytoconstituent that is used to generate clinical purposes. Guava has been explored for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antidiarrheal, antidiabetic, antibacterial, anticancer, and antimicrobial properties, among other pharmacological actions to treat various disorders.
