Benefits of Pears
March 5, 2009
The pear is one of the beloved members of the apple family. In addition to being a fruit that is packed full of nutritional goodness, a pear tree is a lovely tree that works well in any landscaping scheme. Planting a pear tree in your yard provides the local birds with a place to nest; offers shade during the hot summer days, and will bless you with bushels of juicy pears each fall.
You will not believe how much your health can improve just by eating one pear a day. Pears are hypoallergenic, making them an excellent fruit selection for someone who has food allergies.
The Value of Pear Juice
When you have the flu and are running a low-grade fever you should try drinking a cool glass of pear juice. Not only will the juice replace any fluids you may have lost, and help you maintain a healthy blood sugar level, the juice will also lower your fever. Many people feel that the pear juice also acts as an anti-inflammatory and helps ease the achy joints and stiff muscles you get when you are sick.
When you need a quick surge of energy, the fructose and glucose in the pear juice will provide you with a quick pick up.
Dietary Fiber
Just one serving of pear (100 grams) provides you with 3.1 grams of dietary fiber. In addition to making it easier to digest food the dietary fiber in pears will help regulate your colon and eliminate your constipation problems.
During Menopause
Eating a pear when a woman is going through menopause helps prevent osteoporosis and also stabilizes her estrogen levels.
The Benefit of Boran
Until the middle of the 1980’s, no one really new anything about a trace mineral called boran. Since that time we are starting to realize exactly how essential the boran is. People who consume regular amounts of boran, which can be found in pears, are less prone to memory loss, helps regulate other trace minerals, strengthens teeth and bones, helps prevent arthritis, helps maintain proper estrogen levels, and improves calcium absorption.
The boran an expecting mother gets from eating one pear a day significantly decreases the chances of her child developing a neural tube defect.
