May help you lose weight

Pears are one of the lowest-calorie fruits, with a medium pear containing slightly more than 100 calories, or around 5 to 10% of most healthy calorie-restricted diets. They are also a low-calorie density meal with high water content, making them a good alternative for weight loss. A clinical investigation examined the data of 49 women aged 30 to 50 who were instructed to add three of either apple, pears, or oat cookies to their regular diet for ten weeks.

The ladies who ate apples or pears lost weight, but the ones who ate oat cookies gained weight. All three foods contain the same amount of fiber and calories, however, their energy density varies. Because of their high water and fiber content, eating pears on a regular basis may help you feel full. As a result, you may be able to reduce weight.
