Pear calories & macros
57 calories per 100 g · 101 calories per 1 medium (178 g). Pear (raw).
A medium pear runs about 101 calories and delivers 5.5 g of fiber — one of the highest fiber loads of any common fruit, and considerably more than an apple of the same size. Much of that fiber sits in and just under the skin, so peeling costs you the main reason to eat one. The result is a fruit that stays satisfying well past the point where its calories are gone.

Frequently asked
How many calories in a pear?

Are pears or apples better for weight loss?
Pears carry slightly more calories per gram but noticeably more fiber, so per fruit they are the more filling option. Both are good — the difference is small enough that preference should decide it.
