Tomato ketchup is a readily available condiment that can be used along with many foods. Advertisers of such ketchup producers promote the goodness and flavor of tomatoes. But the preservatives and other chemical based ingredients.

One of the dangerous combination in a ketchup is the sugar and sodium ingredients mixed all together to form the sour-sweet taste. This compound in the ketchup when consumed for a long time will damage the nervous system leading to serious issues on a long run.

A spoonful of tomato ketchup contains high sugar content than a glass of tea or coffee. This can constantly increase the insulin levels in the blood causing diabetes and high blood pressure on a long run. Years of usage for all three meals can even produce degenerative diseases like Arthritis, Cancer and brain disorders. High percentage of carbs and other unhealthy fat present in the preserved ketchup may increase the cholesterol content in your body leading to obesity and other lifestyle health problems.

As the ketchup is high in sugar and sodium the prolonged usage of the food can create bad inflammation inside the body that can disrupt the gut microbes along with indigestion and reflux. One of the key causes of reflux based diseases is the high consumption of preserved artificial packed foods where tomato ketchup ranks among the top five. Use ketchups and other highly preserved packaged foods for special occasions only. Keep away such foods especially if your house is blessed with children.
