Tomate Uvina, commonly known as wild tomato or solanum pimpinellifolium, is a small, vibrant red fruit native to South America, particularly Peru and Ecuador. As an ancestor of modern cultivated tomatoes, it boasts a natural, tangy flavor packed with nutrients. Rich in vitamins A and C, Tomate Uvina supports immunity, skin health, and vision. Its high antioxidant content, especially lycopene, contributes to heart health and may reduce inflammation. The fruit is low in calories and contains dietary fiber, aiding digestion and promoting satiety. Traditionally used in South American cuisine, it can complement salsas, sauces, and salads with its robust flavor. While healthy overall, its small seeds may pose challenges for those with digestive sensitivities. Natural and unmodified, Tomate Uvina remains a cherished ingredient for its authentic taste and nutritional benefits in a balanced diet.
