Eating pears after meals helps you excrete carcinogens from your body

Researchers have found that eating a pear or drinking a cup of hot pear juice after a meal can help expel a large amount of carcinogens accumulated in the human body. The survey results show that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, a strong carcinogen accumulated in the body due to smoking or eating barbecue, can be significantly reduced after eating pears, especially after drinking heated pear juice. Experts suggest that in today's world where people are keen on eating fried and grilled foods and fast food, eating a pear after a meal is a healthy lifestyle worth recommending.

Eating pears after meals is good for your health

Pear is a favorite fruit of many people. It is not only fresh and juicy, but also rich in vitamins, dietary fiber, and trace elements such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, and iodine. Eating pears regularly can not only prevent constipation, but also promote the discharge of carcinogens in the human body.

Researchers conducted an experiment on smokers, asking them to eat 750 grams of pears every day for 4 consecutive days, and measured the content of 1-hydroxypyrene, a metabolite of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, in urine before and after eating pears. The results showed that if pears were eaten 6 hours after smoking, a large amount of 1-hydroxypyrene in the human blood would be excreted through urine; if pears were not eaten, very little 1-hydroxypyrene would be excreted. Heated pear juice contains a large amount of anti-cancer substances, polyphenols. When mice injected with carcinogens are given such pear juice, a large amount of 1-hydroxypyrene toxin can be excreted in the urine of the mice, thus effectively preventing cancer. Especially eating a pear after eating fried or grilled foods or fast food is a healthy lifestyle.
