    Tomatoes are not recommended to eat on an empty stomach. Tomatoes contain large amounts of pectin, persimmon phenol, soluble astringent and other ingredients, which easily react with stomach acid and coagulate into insoluble masses. These lumps can block the outlet pylorus of the stomach, increase the pressure in the stomach, cause acute stomach expansion and make people feel bloating.
