Pears are very unlikely to trigger allergic reactions, so can be used in exclusion diets. They contain hydroxycinnamic acids, which act as antioxidants.
Eat pear with the skin, not just for the fibre, but also because chlorogenic acid tends to accumulate in pear skin.
Pears make good energy-boosting snacks and a medium pear weighs about 160 g. They are reasonably low in calories and can be eaten quite freely.
