As you well know, all fruits are good and necessary to maintain a balanced and healthy diet. But today we want to talk to you about pears.
At Anela Fruits, we are producers of this fruit. We have been dedicated to the production of apples and pears for more than 50 years. Specifically, our pear orchards are located in the regions of La Selva and Gironès, where the climate offers excellent humidity for this crop. We specifically grow the Abate, Conference, General Leclerc, Passe-Crassane, Comice, Williams, and Rocha varieties.
Nutritional Information of Pears
Pears contain around 41 calories per 100 grams, and although the sugar level depends on each variety, it ranges between 12% and 16%.
One of the standout features of pears is their high Vitamin C content. A pear contains approximately 10% of the daily recommended intake of this vitamin. And why is it essential to consume Vitamin C? This vitamin is the queen of antioxidants, as it is essential for cell growth and repair.
But that’s not all. It is estimated that a medium-sized pear provides up to 190mg of potassium, which plays an important role in body hydration. Additionally, it is very important for athletes as it helps prevent cramps, fatigue, and muscle pain.
Lastly, it is worth noting that pears are an excellent source of fiber with high concentrations of pectins. This reduces cardiovascular risk and aids our microbiota.
