Eating nutritious foods like fruits and vegetables helps reduce a wide range of health issues or complications and helps us stay fit and strong. Let us take Pear, one of the world\u2019s most nutritious fruits, as an example.<\/p>\n<p>Pear is from the flowering family Rosaceae and is native to coastal and mildly temperate parts of Europe and Asia. This mild, sweet fruit that is juicy as a nectarine but crunchy like an apple. Pears are rich in nutrients that help boost the immune system, reduce risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, and aide with detoxification.<\/p>\n<p>Pears are also a good source of dietary fiber that helps with digestion and can prevent constipation. Furthermore, the dietary fiber present in pears can offer protection from colon cancer as the non-soluble fiber in the pear works as a laxative, while the gritty fiber binds with cancer-causing radicals in the colon and protects the mucous membrane from getting in contact with the cancer-causing agents.<\/p>\n<p>Pear is also packed with other minerals like copper, iron, potassium, manganese and magnesium as well as Vitamins C and B-complex.<\/p>\n<p>Since Pears are in season during fall, you might as well take advantage of them and eat as many pears as you can.<\/p>\n<h3>How to make Fresh Pear Cake<\/h3>\n<p>Prep Time: 1 hr<\/p>\n<p>Bake Time: 1 hr 10 mins<\/p>\n<p>Yields: 12 servings<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>4 cups <a href=\"https:\/\/www.halegroves.com\/pears\/c\/ft_1001_13\/\">Hale Groves pears<\/a>, peeled, cored and chopped<\/li>\n<li>2 cups white sugar<\/li>\n<li>3 cups sifted all-purpose flour<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon salt<\/li>\n<li>1 1\/2 teaspoons baking soda<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon ground nutmeg<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon ground cinnamon<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon ground cloves<\/li>\n<li>4 egg whites<\/li>\n<li>2\/3 cup canola oil<\/li>\n<li>1 cup chopped pecans<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Directions:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Combine the pears and the sugar and let stand for one hour.<\/li>\n<li>Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
