Processed Tomato Products May Protect Against Inflammation, According to a Study Presented at the Experimental Biology Meeting
Date:4/21/2009

econd most popular vegetable in the country, represent an excellent opportunity to ward off chronic disease. Since processed tomato products are both economical and easily adaptable to a variety of cultural diets, their health benefits warrant further investigation.

Given the potential for tomato products to protect against chronic disease, researchers from the University of California, Davis, National Center for Food Safety & Technology in Illinois, and Penn State University investigated the effects of processed tomato products on vasodilatation (another target for lowering disease through dietary strategies) and C-reactive protein on overweight and obese men and women. Within the diets of 56 free-living individuals participating in the study, processed tomato products or non-tomato products were matched in calories, sodium, and sugar content. All of the test subjects consumed a low-tomato diet for three weeks followed by either a six week high-tomato diet or low-tomato diet. At six weeks, the subjects were assessed as to the response of tomato after eating a high-fat meal. Compared with the low-tomato group, the high-tomato group experienced a C-reactive protein level that was lower in response to the high-fat meal. High-tomato intake was also associated with increased mean vessel diameter, but flow mediated vasodilatation was not different, possibly related to the BMI of subjects. The researchers concluded that processed tomatoes provide a protective role on inflammation, but increasing adiposity may negate the benefits of the high-tomato diet on endothelial function.

Researchers in the study include Rose M Giordano, Tissa Kappagoda, Mandeep Cheema, Jack Cappozzo, Yumei Cao, Penny Kris-Etherton, and Britt Burton-Freeman. The study was sponsored by the Tomato Products Wellness Council (www.tomatowellness.com).
