Guava seeds may cause appendicitis

My girlfriend just had appendicitis and performed the surgery which they call it appendectomy a few days ago. The cause of her getting appendicitis is not known. But I'm glad that you share that guava seeds can cause appendicitis so that we will be avoiding such seeds in the future. I hope your friend relative is doing fine now and no side effects did turn up from the surgery.

I do believe in what you say, it might have caused; but the reverse is not true always, i take half ripe guava in guava season, am perfectly ok Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for this info. Now i have the proof that indeed guava seeds can cause appendicitis. I don't eat the seeds anyways because i find them hard to chew..lol. I will make this info as a warning for my friends and for my relatives. Thanks again. have a great day.

I thought that "eating guava seeds could cause appendicitis", is just a tale. So it's true after all. But i have eaten lots of guava seeds in my younger years? I hope it won't make me sick , now that i haven't eaten any anymore.

yeah that's true! guava seeds are too hard so our digestive system cant digest it..and too small that sometimes nit goes to our appendix..when eating guavas, remove the seeds.

Eating guava seed causes apendicitis! sounds very peculiar. I always chew the guava seeds. while eating guava, and swallo them. I ate the guava seeds so many times, but it does not affect me any time. However, I will take the advice seriously and be cautious while eating guavas.

So it is true. My grandpa used to warn us not eat the guava seeds because they can into the appendix and get stuck in there. He said it may cause appendicitis because those seeds are arent able to digest by the stomach so it will flow downwards to your appendix . I thougt it was just a mere belief from the elderly people.

that is a sad thing.. maybe your friend eats a tons of seed..LOL All too much is really have a bad effect. In my own self I don't practically eat guava seeds. I don't like to crunch it on my mounth.
