You are doing yourself a lot of harm! If you suffer from these 4 health problems, be careful when consuming tomatoes

Tomato is one of the richest vegetables with nutritional value that is never missing from our table, regardless of the time of year. If you consume it in raw form, you will benefit from many vitamins, minerals, fibers and antioxidants.

But, the tomato also has its dark side, which causes side effects on health.

Here are its biggest negative effects if it is consumed in large quantities:

Decreased immunity: The main element found in fresh unprocessed tomatoes is lycopene, a 'carotenoid pigment'. However, excessive consumption of this component can interfere with the regular activities of our immune system and slow it down.

Gastrointestinal problems: Tomatoes are full of acids. So, excessive consumption of tomatoes causes various gastrointestinal disorders. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common bowel disorder. This disease raises the level of digestive acid in the stomach, which starts leaking out.

Intestinal disorders: The lycopene content in tomatoes can cause some serious intestinal problems, such as irritable bowel syndrome.

Kidney stones: Tomatoes, especially their seeds, are rich in calcium and oxalate. If you suffer from minor kidney problems, your body will find it very difficult to digest these components.
