According to a recent study, a Russian dietitian reported that eating tomatoes does not always bring benefit to the body, but rather does harm to it.
The study, published by the Russian agency "Novosity", warned people who suffer from kidney stones and those with stomach diseases - gastritis and stomach ulcers, from eating tomatoes, because they contain a large amount of organic acids.
The expert stressed that people with stomach problems should avoid eating tomato derivatives, such as ketchup and tomato paste.
At the same time, this doctor reminded, that tomatoes contain many vitamins, microelements and key nutrients, as well as lycopene, which has an antioxidant effect on all organs, and has a beneficial effect on the prostate gland.
She noted that thermally treated tomatoes are more beneficial than fresh tomatoes, so before using them, they should be cooked for a short period on low heat.
