How we judge this, and the sources
The answer comes from the food's composition, not from opinion: its Nutri-Score grade on the open 2023 algorithm, a traffic light for sugar, salt, saturated fat and fiber per 100 g, and the share of daily reference amounts in a typical serving (for salt, sugar, fiber and vegetables, those of the WHO). It rates the food's nutrient profile; it is not medical advice. Formulas, thresholds and every source are on the methodology page; last checked against the sources on November 1, 2026. The short food description was written by our language model (AI) — how we check the text.

Vitamins and minerals in pear
No single vitamin or mineral reaches 10% of the Daily Value per 100 g; the value of this food is elsewhere (see the nutrition table above).
| Nutrient | Per 100 g | Serving: one, 180 g | % DV |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vitamin C | 4.3 mg | 7.7 mg | 9% |
| Vitamin K | 4.4 mcg | 7.9 mcg | 7% |
| Potassium | 116 mg | 209 mg | 4% |
| Copper | 0.08 mg | 0.15 mg | 16% |
| Manganese | 0.05 mg | 0.09 mg | 4% |
*Where the vitamin numbers come from
Vitamins and minerals come from the USDA FoodData Central record “Pears, raw” (FDC ID 169118, SR Legacy; public domain), checked October 14, 2026; the record was matched to this food by calories, protein and fat. % DV is per serving, against the FDA Daily Values used on Nutrition Facts labels (2,000-calorie diet). The table lists nutrients that reach at least 2% DV per 100 g; the rest are absent or trace. Varieties, seasons and brands differ, and cooking in water leaches some vitamin C and B vitamins.

Pear: calories by type
“Calories per 100 g” depends on the kind: fat level, variety, what's added. Every row comes from the same database the diary uses.
| Per 100 g | Kcal | P / F / C, g |
|---|---|---|
| Asian pear | 42 | 0.5 / 0.2 / 11 |
| Pear | 57 | 0.4 / 0.1 / 15 |
| Dried pears | 262 | 1.9 / 0.6 / 70 |
Calories in dishes with pear
| Dish | Serving | Kcal per serving | Pear in it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pear and gorgonzola salad | 180 g | 349 | ≈81 g |
| Pear and gorgonzola pizza | 100 g | 261 | ≈13 g |
How we count
Dishes are estimated from typical restaurant and home recipes — a specific kitchen will differ.
How much movement is one serving?
A serving (one, 180 g) is 103 kcal — roughly 34 min of easy walking or 13 min of cycling for a 70 kg (154 lb) person. In the diary, minutes are worked out for your weight and the activities you actually do.
Pear: swaps and alternatives
No need to swap: pears already get grade A, the top of the scale, and nothing is in the red on the per-100 g traffic light: sugar 10 g (red is over 22.5 g), saturated fat 0 g (over 5 g) and salt 0 g (over 1.5 g). We only suggest a swap when it fixes a real problem. How we pick swaps.
