Health Benefits of Pears
Pears are not only a delicious snack, but also very healthy and beneficial for your body.
Nutritional and Health Benefits
Pears have a wonderful cooling effect to them. If you should have a fever, having a pear may be helpful in reducing your fever. Some say to drink pear juice, but I personally try to stay away from fruit juices unless you make them yourself. Otherwise, fruit juices you buy tend to be very high in sugar- sometimes even more than soda.
Pears are an excellent source of fiber. The fiber in pears may help regulate bowel movements.
Pears are full of Vitamin C and Copper, making Pears very antioxidant rich, which helps with the immune system.
Pears are high in Vitamin B and Potassium. This is great because it is healthy for your heart and has beneficial effects on your overall blood pressure.
Pears have plenty of Pectin, which helps with digestion, and a natural cleanse of toxins in the body.
