Pear
- Pears are a leading source of the antioxidant epicatechin, which helps combat free radicals linked to aging.
- Pears are one of the best sources of cholesterol-lowering fiber, containing four grams per medium-size pear. Most of this fiber is in the peel. This same serving also provides vitamin C and only 100 calories.
