These lumps may block the pylorus at the outlet of the stomach, causing discomfort such as gastrointestinal fullness and pain. Eating tomatoes after meals is not serious because gastric acid has been mixed with many foods, and its concentration is not large, so it will not react with the above gum.

It is better to eat raw than cooked

For tomatoes, it is better to eat raw than cooked. Tomatoes are not as fresh as other vegetables and fruits. Because lycopene in tomato exists in the cell wall, it can effectively destroy its fiber structure after heating, so that the most valuable nutrient lycopene can be released and absorbed by the human body. Therefore, the quality of tomato products is not whether it is fresh, but whether it has been processed and heated. It is better to make tomato soup as a next meal dish.

When tomatoes are put into the soup, malic acid and citric acid are dissolved in the soup, which can help gastric juice to digest fat and protein, so it is very beneficial to eat tomato soup after eating greasy food. Lycopene in tomatoes can inhibit some bacteria and fungi, and has the effect of treating oral inflammation. Adding .5% salt to tomato soup as tea in hot days has the effect of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat. If you want to eat it raw, you should buy pink ones. Because this kind of tomato has a light sour taste, it is better to eat raw; If you want to eat it cooked, buy red tomatoes as much as possible.
