Calories, Blemish Removal, and Serving Size of Golden Fruit Cherry Tomatoes (Cherry Tomatoes)

Cherry tomato, also known as cherry tomato or small tomato, is a relatively common fruit and vegetable in China, and is deeply loved by people for its good taste, rich nutritional value, and effects such as reducing fever and disinfecting, nourishing blood, and strengthening the stomach. So how many calories are in cherry tomatoes? Can they remove freckles? How many is it appropriate to eat per day?

1. How many calories are in cherry tomatoes?

Cherry tomatoes are not high in calories. Generally, every 100 g contains only 22 kcal, equivalent to the calories burned by a 4-minute walk, so they are especially suitable for women or people trying to lose weight.

2. Can cherry tomatoes remove freckles?

To be precise, once spots have already appeared, it is very difficult to completely remove them through the use of topical products, and cherry tomatoes are no exception. However, applying them persistently every day still has some effect on removing spots, because cherry tomatoes are rich in vitamin C, carotene, lycopene, and so on, which can effectively reduce the production of melanin in the body, thereby achieving a spot-removing effect. Still, the effect is not very obvious. Personally, I suggest also achieving the effect through other methods such as dietary adjustment or physical exercise.

3. How many cherry tomatoes is it appropriate to eat per day?

Generally, eating about 20 cherry tomatoes a day is enough. Because cherry tomatoes are a cold-natured fruit and vegetable, eating too many can cause gastrointestinal discomfort, causing diarrhea, abdominal pain, and so on. In particular, people with gastrointestinal discomfort or a cold constitution had better not eat too many, so as not to worsen the condition and affect recovery.

4. What should cherry tomatoes not be eaten with?

1. Cherry tomatoes should not be eaten with cucumber: cherry tomatoes contain a large amount of vitamin C, while cucumber contains a large amount of vitamin C-degrading enzyme. Eating the two together will destroy the vitamin C in cherry tomatoes, thereby reducing their edible value.

2. Cherry tomatoes should not be eaten with pomegranate: both cherry tomatoes and pomegranate contain a large amount of vitamin C. If the two are eaten together, the vitamin C content will increase, affecting the body's nutritional balance.

3. Cherry tomatoes should not be eaten with sweet potato: cherry tomatoes contain a large amount of pectin, and sweet potato contains a large amount of sugar. If the two are eaten together, they will produce an acid reaction in the stomach, causing stomach pain and other stomach problems, and in severe cases can lead to gastrointestinal stones, so it is best not to eat them together.

4. Cherry tomatoes should not be eaten with shrimp or crab: cherry tomatoes are rich in vitamin C, and shrimp and crab contain a large amount of arsenic. Eating the two together will produce toxicity and cause poisoning, so it is best not to eat them together.

5. Cherry tomatoes should not be eaten with potato: cherry tomatoes and potato are both alkaline foods, but after potato is digested by the human body, it produces acidic substances. If eaten with cherry tomatoes, it will produce precipitates that are difficult to digest and absorb, increasing the burden on the stomach and intestines and causing indigestion.

5. What is the market price of cherry tomatoes per jin?

The market price of cherry tomatoes is very affordable, generally around 3 to 5 yuan per jin. However, due to differences in variety, quality, place of origin, and market, there will also be certain differences in price. For example, at the Tianyang County fruit and vegetable wholesale market in Guangxi, cherry tomatoes are 2 yuan/kg, while at the Beijing Rishang Comprehensive Commodity Wholesale Market, cherry tomatoes are priced at 9 yuan/kg, so the specific price still needs to be checked at the local market. The recent market prices of cherry tomatoes are as follows:
