Is Tomato good for pregnancy?

Yes, tomatoes are a good food choice during pregnancy as they are a staple in many households. They are packed with essential nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium.¹

Additionally, tomatoes contain lycopene, an antioxidant known to help with insulin resistance, which may lower the risk of gestational diabetes in women.^1,2,3

Studies also suggest that consuming tomato-rich foods promotes the intake of vitamin A, which is essential for maintaining the mother's night vision, the baby's overall eye health, immune health, and the development of bones and other organs.⁴

Furthermore, the consumption of tomatoes (when taken with low-sodium diet) can greatly benefit women who are at risk of preeclampsia by lowering their blood pressure.⁵ Having said that, please seek dietary advice from your doctor to better understand what should be done to alleviate or reduce the risks of preeclampsia and other related complications. While you incorporate a healthy diet during pregnancy to ensure your and your baby's well being, you can also safeguard the health of your baby as well as your entire family for a lifetime!
