"For a healthy life, eat fruits and vegetables every day!" This is one of the messages that runs daily on TV, along with the one that urges us to drink water and exercize. Let’s take a look at some of the most beloved fruits and their health and beauty benefits!

Pears, anti-aging effect

As I said above, golden pears are real gold when it comes to skin beauty! Constant consumption of pears prevents the appearance of wrinkles and blemishes caused by the aging process, due to the high content of vitamin A. At the same time, the pear extract can stop hair loss and help eliminate skin imperfections.

Pears (Wild Pear collection) are also a rich natural source of minerals such as copper and potassium. Copper plays an important role in immunity, cholesterol metabolism and the nervous system, while potassium helps muscle contractions and normal heart function.

Moreover, these fruits are an excellent source of polyphenol antioxidants, which protect against oxidative damage.

In addition, several studies over time have shown that apples contain significant amounts of collagen and elastin, substances that help maintain skin elasticity.
