Is it worth eating tomatoes with sour cream if you are for a healthy lifestyle and a healthy diet?
Salad with tomatoes, seasoned with sour cream, is one of the most favorite among Belarusians. Although sour cream is a high-calorie product, Marudova does not see anything terrible in it. However, if the issue of weight loss is relevant, then it is worth making small changes.
— You can do this: replace high-fat sour cream or olive oil with two percent Greek yogurt — and you’ll get a delicious salad with a fat-burning effect. But if there is sour cream in the salad in small dosages, then I don’t see anything criminal in it. As practice shows, Belarusians are not gaining weight because of this.
Another gastronomic myth is the incompatibility of tomatoes and cucumbers. Allegedly, when these vegetables are consumed together, poorly soluble salts are formed in the body. But, as the interlocutor says, there is not a single scientific proof of this.
“Both tomatoes and cucumbers are vegetables that are low in calories and contain a large amount of fiber,” says the expert. - In some ways, these are two acrobat brothers who, even if you eat a lot of them, will not harm the body in any way. There are no official studies that say that these vegetables cannot be eaten together.
Is tomato juice with sour cream harmful?
The delicious cocktail has several strong contraindications:
- Allergy to tomatoes or lactose.
- Acute renal or heart failure.
- Increased stomach acidity or gastrointestinal diseases.
In all these cases, you should consult your doctor before using the product regularly.
It should also be taken into account that milk-containing products should not be consumed in case of severe intoxication. On diets, it is necessary to take into account the fat content of sour cream included in the cocktail. And most importantly, it is important to take only fresh ingredients to prepare a sauce or smoothie, since both milk and tomatoes are highly perishable ingredients. This cocktail is drunk only freshly prepared. You can cool the mixture a little, but do not keep it in the refrigerator for more than 6-8 hours .

Harm of tomatoes to the body
Yes, tomatoes of various varieties contain a huge number of useful substances, but they can also negatively affect the functioning of the body's systems. Especially if you neglect the recommended “doses” for their use. Let's figure out who is harmful from eating tomatoes and why.
Diseases of the gastrointestinal tract
If a person has any problems with the gastrointestinal tract (and especially if pathological abnormalities are observed), then by eating tomatoes, he can seriously harm his body.
In case of disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, accompanied by high acidity, vegetables of the Solanaceae family should not be eaten at all, in any form. Also, tomatoes are contraindicated for kidney damage of various types.
Important! If you have an advanced ulcer, exacerbation of gastritis or problems with the pancreas (pancreatitis), then excessive consumption of tomatoes can have an extremely negative impact on the functioning of the affected organs. Therefore, they need to be seriously limited in your diet. .
Allergic reactions
Since tomatoes are red, they are classified as foods that increase the risk of developing any allergic reactions. Therefore, the amount of tomatoes consumed needs to be controlled:
- Pregnant;
- Children;
- All allergy sufferers.
High uric acid levels
If the diagnosis includes increased uric acidity, then tomatoes can also be harmful to health. And all because an increase in uric acidity provokes arthritis or polyarthritis and it is impossible to determine exactly how tomato juice will affect the course of these diseases.
What are the benefits of tomatoes?
The main beneficial property of tomatoes is their positive effect on literally every cell of the body. Thus, a red vegetable can normalize the functioning of any body system. Let's look at this in more detail.
Digestive tract
If you like to eat meat often, nutritionists and doctors will advise you to eat tomatoes along with such “heavy food”, because they speed up the digestive processes. Also, the red vegetable reduces the discomfort that occurs when the stomach digests meat, and “negates” the fermentation processes in the gastrointestinal tract.
Good to know! Red tomato fruits must be present in the diet of a person who has a reduced level of acidity in the stomach, because tomatoes can quickly normalize this indicator .
By removing the skin and eating the pulp of a tomato, you activate the production of gastric juice in the gastrointestinal tract, which will have a positive effect on intestinal function and plays the role of an effective remedy for the prevention of colic.
Circulatory system
The red vegetable perfectly thins the blood and is recommended to be consumed as a preventive measure for varicose veins. Also, this vegetable is recommended for ailments such as thrombophlebitis and atherosclerosis.
If you eat tomatoes every day, they will normalize cholesterol and remove plaques that have already appeared on the vascular walls. In addition, these salted vegetables are useful for hypertension and heart rhythm disturbances.
Heart
Both inside the vegetable and in its skin there is sodium, potassium and magnesium, which normalize the functioning of the heart muscle, and are prescribed in the form of medications for the prevention of various heart diseases.
Immunity
Tomato fruits contain ascorbic acid, which greatly helps fight various colds and is ideal for the prevention of acute respiratory viral infections during the season. If you eat tomatoes often, you can seriously strengthen your immune system, which will minimize the risk of developing respiratory diseases.
Interesting to know! How many tomatoes do you think you need to eat to get your daily dose? The norm is 300 grams of tomatoes. If there is a lack of vitamin A - 50 grams, and if vitamin B1 - up to 150 grams of fresh vegetables .
Hemoglobin
Due to the fact that tomato contains a lot of iron, its systematic use allows you to maintain hemoglobin at an optimal level. Also, the vegetable is able to normalize the production of red blood cells and has a preventive effect against anemia.
Metabolism
Tomatoes are able to enhance metabolism - this is their key feature. They also promote the breakdown of fat cells. These two factors make the vegetable very useful for the body of a woman who is on a diet.
Tomatoes have a minimum of calories, and they are indicated for consumption by people who have metabolic disorders, which causes weight gain. Tomatoes, as the main “tool” for diet, activate metabolism, remove excess fluid from the body, which helps to reduce body weight.
Lungs
Why do pulmonologists recommend eating tomatoes often? The answer is simple - if you consume these vegetables for a long time, toxic substances and mucus that accumulate on the walls of the smoker’s organ are gradually removed from the lungs.
Liver and kidneys
Tomatoes have a diuretic effect, which promotes the flow of bile and reduces the negative impact on the liver. Also, tomatoes are able to regenerate liver cells, and sodium normalizes the balance of salts in the kidneys. In addition, tomatoes break down sand and stones that appear in this organ.
Prevention of neoplasms
Lycopene is an excellent remedy for the prevention of cancer of the respiratory system and digestive tract. In addition, it is lycopene that plays the role of the main agent in the conservative drug treatment of cancerous tumors of these organs.
Nervous system
The nervous system also gets a lot of benefits if you enjoy enjoying a red ripe tomato. And all thanks to antioxidants, which can activate regeneration processes in nerve cells.
In addition, systematic consumption of red fruits of the Solanaceae family stabilizes the emotional background, has a relaxing effect, and helps cope with stress.
