1. The effect of pear on clearing heat and moistening the lungs
We often experience coughs and sore throats caused by cold and dryness in autumn and winter. The effect of pears to clear heat and moisten the lungs can alleviate these uncomfortable symptoms. Studies have found that pectin substances rich in pears can protect the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract and play a role in moistening the lungs. In addition, pears can also increase the body's fluid secretion, helping to relieve the discomfort of a dry throat.
2. The cleaning and disinfection effect of pears
The vitamin C and polyphenols rich in pears have natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, which can help eliminate free radicals in the body and enhance the body's immunity. In addition, pears are also rich in fiber, which can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, help digestion and eliminate waste products from the body, and clean the intestines.
