GREGORY CHANDLER--PEARS PREVENT A PEAR SHAPE

If you seek to avoid having a pear shaped body, pears are of help.  Just one pear packs 15% of one's daily recommended amount of fiber.  One study found that women who ate three pears a day consumed fewer calories and lost more weight than women who consumed no pears. 

Pears should not be peeled because the skin of the pear contains much of the fiber.
