What is Tomato Paste?
Tomato paste is a thick condensed paste made by stewing tomatoes for hours to reduce the water in the tomatoes. Seeds and skins are strained out and then the tomatoes are cooked again to reduce further until you’re left with a thick concentrated paste. Tomato paste enhances a number of dishes and when caramelized, it adds a delicious robust flavor.
High Cholesterol:
The carotenoids that are abundant in tomato paste help support heart health by decreasing the levels of LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) in the body. Carotenoids also prevent the oxidation cholesterol that leads to plaque formation and hardening of the arteries. Consuming tomato paste regularly improves blood pressure. This helps in proper blood flow and decreases the risk of heart attack and stroke
