Posted Tuesday, January 3, 2012 |
Today research is underway regarding the role
that pears may play in helping to maintain
health. Fresh pears offer health advantages in a
number of ways including a strong nutritional
profile that includes significant amounts of
fiber, potassium, and vitamin C. Pears, like
other fruits and vegetables, contain a vast
array of naturally occurring beneficial plant
compounds, known as phytochemicals, many of
which act as antioxidants. Pears are also a good
source of vitamin C, which is also a well-known,
powerful antioxidant, according to California
Pear Advisory Board.
