About Jitomate
Jitomate, commonly known as tomato, is a versatile fruit predominantly used in Mexican, Mediterranean, and global cuisines. Native to the Americas and domesticated in Mexico, jitomate is rich in vitamins A, C, and K, along with potassium and antioxidant compounds like lycopene. Lycopene has been linked to heart health and reduced risk of certain cancers. Low in calories and high in water content, it aids hydration and weight management. Jitomates can be consumed raw, cooked, or blended into sauces, salsas, and soups, making them a staple in various dishes. While highly nutritious, canned or processed tomato products may contain added salts or sugars, which could reduce their health benefits. Fresh jitomates are best for maximizing nutrients and flavor while minimizing unhealthy additives.
