Pears like most fruits, are a great source of dietary fiber. Fiber not only prevents constipation and ensures regularity of the digestive tract, it also binds cancer-causing chemicals in the colon and inhibits them from damaging colon cells. One medium to large pear can contain as much as 20 percent of the daily recommended amount of fiber. Pears typically also are hypo-allergenic and often are recommended as the first fruit given to infants.
