Guest guest Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 Does anyone know the reason that tomato juice is ok, but not canned tomatoes, tomato paste or tomato sauce (with legal ingredients) in a jar?

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Adam, Prior to my transplant, I ate pizza with tomato sauce – the really good stuff – only issue was acid reflux. My doctor told me to eat whatever my system allowed me to eat. I did have some issues with beans and onions. Post transplant I still have the pizza – but less often due to the salt. I am also able to enjoy beans again. Just prior to transplant I did have a lot of issues with fatty foods and acid reflux. From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of Adam I think I read somewhere that high acid foods and fatty foods are bad for people with PSC. I make my own pizzas now with pesto instead of pizza sauce and everything seems to be fine. Does anyone else have problems with eating tomato based products such as marinara sauce or pizza sauce?

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Greetings, I love tomatoes and Mexican food but was recently told by a naturopath that people with liver problems should stay away from tomatoes and other "red" vegetables or spicy foods like peppers etc. I was told that when the liver is stressed foods like that heat it up worse and can cause more issues... Anyone else heard anything similar?

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 I'm skeptical - see http://www.ead.ae/en/?T=4&ID=2034 for an opposite view (I don't claim either view is correct). Capasaicin (the " hot " in peppers) has been shown in numerous controlled studies to be beneficial in many circumstances: http://members.kaiserpermanente.org/kpweb/healthency.do?hwid=ut1025spec for example. Lycopene is the most predominant anti-oxidant in tomatoes, and has shown anti-cancer benefits http://members.kaiserpermanente.org/kpweb/healthency.do? hwid=ncicdr0000062833 " Evidence exists that a diet with a high intake of fruits and vegetables is associated with a lower risk of cancer. " In general, dark colored vegetables are high in anti-oxidants (pomegranate, tomatoes, dark green leafy vegetables, beets, etc.). On the other hand, most people with GERD will have a terrible time with tomatoes, in just about any form (in addition to alcohol and caffeine). Those with active GI tract inflammation will (usually) have problems with spicy foods - in addition to milk, roughage, etc. I LOVE Mexican cuisine, and have never had a problem with it - but everyone's different. We put up 30+ quarts of tomatoes and 20 pints of salsa last fall. I frequently use cayenne pepper (in moderation) as a flavor enhancer. Not your typical Norwegian tastes, but there you have it! Arne 57 - UC 1977 - PSC 2000 Alive and well in Minnesota ....I love tomatoes and Mexican food but was recently told by a naturopath that people with liver problems should stay away from tomatoes and other " red " vegetables or spicy foods like peppers etc...

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 If you are having problems with a processed form of a food, I would think the processing is what the problem is…you said you could eat tomatoes with no problem and ketchup with no problem…look at the ingredients and find out what is in the ones you have problems with that isn’t in ketchup. I cannot eat tomatoes unless they are organic …non-organic tomatoes set my bladder on fire (I have interstitial cystitis) but organic tomatoes don’t bother me at all… it must be in the pesticides or fertilizers… I have completely stopped all symptoms of my IC through diet.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Sorry for the late reply re: the tomato issue. My internet was down for a week! In the book I'm reading called Anti-Inflammation Diet, it says tomatoes tend to cause inflammatory response. So does dairy, sugar, wheat, among others. Not everyone reacts the same to all of these, but I'm noticing they do affect me (nasal congestion for me, but it can manifest diferently for different people according to this book). I wonder I'm more sensitive than most as my body seems susceptible to allergies (I have many environmental allergies - pollen, mold, dust mites, etc). Allergies are immune response (attacking foreign substance that the immune system falsely recognize as harmful) which causes inflammation. PSC is an auto-immune disease (attacking our own body part (cells) that the immune system falsely recognize as harmful) causing inflammation, so I wonder if there's some connection here. Anyway, inflammation is not good for PSC, so I avoid things that I react to (and observe what I react to, as I was oblivious for a long time) as much as I can, while also allowing myself to cheat once in a while to enjoy. No matter what, cutting down can only help! Youske Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
