Pear

It’s good against arteriosclerosis and chronic conditions of the lungs, like emphysema and bronchitis. The pear has great curative properties especially because it contains catechins, substances that belong to the antioxidant flavonoids group (catechin acid, flavanol, flavone), like the apples, the tomatoes, and the bananas, protecting the heart and vascular systems, and against some cancers. A medium-sized pear has 65 calories.

Country of Origin Greece/Italy
