Pears 梨 (li)

Pears are a common and versatile fruit, available in green, yellow and red varieties of various shapes and sizes. In traditional Chinese medicine, pears are cooling in nature and help to clear body heat. However, if you are sensitive to cold or prone to loose bowels, it’s best to consume less. Pears are particularly beneficial for individuals with chronic cough or phlegm and are recommended for increased consumption during dry or warm seasons.
