About Tomatoes And People
First, tomatoes are not a vegetable, they are a fruit. Generally, Tomatoes are healthy for us, but some of us have to watch because a few varieties of tomatoes have higher sugar levels and can impact people with sugar. The same goes with tomatoes with more acidity too them can affect people with acid reflux. So eating too many tomatoes can be bad for our health too.
What Are Anthocyanins
Anthocyanins – These make up coloring the black/blue coloring in tomatoes and also other fruits and vegetables. They act as antioxidants and anthocyanins may offer anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, and anti-cancer. This also can treat a number of conditions involving blood vessel health, like high blood pressure, and help with diabetics. They can be used to treat a number of other conditions, including colds and urinary tract infections. Research also suggests that anthocyanins may help and aid in fighting off major health problems, including heart disease and cancer.
