The pear cultivars exhibited anti-hyperglycemic activity by inhibiting alpha-amylase, alpha-glucosidase, and sucrase enzyme activities. The inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of Bartlett and Starkrimson pear cultivars against alpha-amylase, alpha-glucosidase, and sucrase enzymes were found to be 0.0024, 0.0032, and 0.0021 mg/mL, respectively. The pear cultivars also exhibited significant anti-hypertensive activity against angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) with IC50 values of 0.0004 and 0.0006 mg/mL for Bartlett and Starkrimson, respectively. Moreover, fermented pear juices also possessed inhibitory activity against Helicobacter pylori. The results suggest that pear cultivars have relevance to be included in dietary strategies for better management of early stage hyperglycemia, hypertension, and related gastrointestinal disorders. This study looks into the potential health benefits of two different pear cultivars, Bartlett and Starkrimson, for people with type 2 diabetes and hypertension. The results found that both pear cultivars had anti-hyperglycemic and anti-hypertensive effects when tested in an in vitro environment. They inhibited alpha-amylase, alpha-glucosidase, sucrase, and angiotensin I-converting enzyme activities. Additionally, their fermented juices also had inhibitory effects against Helicobacter pylori. It is suggested that pear cultivars may be useful dietary strategies for managing type 2 diabetes and hypertension, as well as other related gastrointestinal disorders. In conclusion, pears may indeed be beneficial for people with diabetes, but further research is needed to confirm these findings.
