I get a tomato every morning when I get up. My friend said that this would not work. Can I eat tomatoes on an empty stomach?

    Tomatoes cannot be eaten on an empty stomach, because tomatoes contain a large amount of soluble astringent and other ingredients, which react with stomach acid and coagulate into insoluble lumps, which can easily cause discomfort symptoms such as gastrointestinal distension and pain.
