Pears have VERY low GI. Its better than apples/oranges. I think the GI was around 8-20 or something.

Go to database on the left and Search "Pear".

Most of the results are around 35. (Which is low)

most fruits are very low gi, but that doesn't tell the whole story. as we know they are not ideal for restoring muscle glycogen.

that said i still ahve a couple of pieces of fruit per day.
