Pears contain special phytonutrients, including anti-inflammatory flavonoids, anticancer polyphenols, and anti-aging flavonoids.

Studies regarding pear nutrition have linked the fruit’s consumption with lower levels of constipation, kidney stones, high cholesterol, and even diabetes. And while there aren’t many calories in a pear, pears can help lower inflammation, which is the root of most diseases. Plus, they’re one of the best sources of dietary fiber of all fruits. They provide high amounts of vitamin C, vitamin K, and boron, which aid in bone health, and pear nutrition also helps reverse copper deficiency and low potassium.
