Do tomatoes have any carbohydrates, and if so, how many do they contain? |
My mom is diabetic, and we can't seem to find out if tomatoes have any carbohydrates in them. She loves them, and we would like any feedback so we know how much of them she can eat. Thanks in advance. TAMMY --YOU NEED TO GET A 'GLYCEMIC INDEX ' IT WILL TELL YOU ALL THE GLYCEMIC ( SUGAR ) IN THE VEGGIES.---TOMATOES RATE SOME WHAT HIGHER ON THE INDEX......YES THERE ARE PLENTY OF CARBS---LOOK ON THE SIDE OF A CANNED TOMATO CAN IT WILL SHOW YOU AN INDEX......DOCTORS SAY IF YOU ARE ESPECIALLY FOND OF TOMATOES---USUALLY YOU'RE LOW ON IRON......FRIED LIVER & ONIONS ---HIGH IN IRON...... No. Eat all you want. on a 260g can of tomato juice (no sugar added) it states for every 100g of juice there is 3.9g of carbohydrate. Thus to get 1 total unit of carb she would need to drink 500g of tomato juice. (about 2 cans) Please get yourself and your Mom a book of food counts. |
