Information
If you are pregnant, you can eat tomato puree, but it is important to be careful. The tomato concentrate is rich in sodium and citric acid, which can increase the risk of preeclampsia and benign prostate hypertrophy. It is also rich in vitamin A, which can be toxic to the fetus in high doses. It is therefore important to limit the consumption of tomato concentrate during pregnancy. If you are concerned about the nutrient intake of your diet, please consult a qualified health professional to discuss your options. Although the tomato concentrate is not considered a food to be avoided during your pregnancy, it is important to consume it in moderation.
