Tomato Juice and babaganoosh

[Americanhero1]

Coulda had a V8!

 

[Dr. Dan]

I think chaim is preparing to do some commecials for the askjtf shows...

first it was pineapple juice..now tomato juice and babaganoosh.

I think Chaim is trying to convince us to eat healthy. As I was listening to the show this morning each time he mentioned the tomato juice I started getting a craving for some as well. Since I had none in the house I had to settle for some Kedem Apple Juice (with no sugar added  ) with my lunch.

The issue with tomato juice is that it is very very very high in Sodium...very very salty...Chaim should watch what he drinks...just because it's tomatoes doesn't mean it is healthy...very very very HIGH in salt...i would advise taking actual cherry tomatoes chopping them up with some kirby cucumbers, a splash of lemon, a splash of olive oil, kyan pepper, a tiny bit of salt...

[Dr. Dan]

It's an eggplant dish seasoned with spices.

and potentially alot of mayonaise.

Mayonnaise is spelt with 2 Ns.

hopefully not an unhealthy mayonnaise.

transfats are worst, then poly something, or saturated.   
monounsaturated is the healthiest form of fat.

Chaim has brainwashed me ...

Today I were shopping in a discounter. I really bought a big pack of bio-tomato-juice with sea salt and of cause without sugar.

pheasant..while most of a tomato juice is very healthy, read the amount of sodium it carries..about 35% of the daily allowance..that's friggin high!

If it is tomatoe juice you want, I recommend trying a fresh tomato, cucumbers, lemon/lime juice, salt, pepper, cayanne pepper...let me know how it tastes once it has been blended...

Also those ingredients make for a goooood salad.

Thank you Dr. Dan! 









Natrium = Sodium

So the juice has 0,2 gramm of Sodium pro 100 ml

and it has 1,4 gramm of salt pro 200 ml ( a glass)

Is it ok?

[Dr. Dan]

I see 23% per serving of sodium. That means if you have 4 servings of this, you have reached your limit of the amount of sodium you should be having in a given day.

I personally love V8 and tomato juice and once in a while it's good to have...but be wary...There is a high sodium content. If you normally don't put salt on your food and have other low sodium diets, then you can survive on a drink or two of tomato juice. But be careful..it's not as good for you as you might think...just because of the sodium content alone..it's what makes it taste good.

I often put a load of skinned tomatoes in a blender.

I don't taste much salt.


If I have tomato juice from a carton, I have some bottled water too, and alternate.  This is because otherwise it is too salty.

Blenders don't, no. It's a spinning blade on a motor.

But people who put the juice in cartons, probably do, which is why when I have the cartoned juice, I have some bottled water along with it.

juicer might be more convenient than a blender.. - perhaos not having to peel - though a friend said that throwing them in whole, though it  may separate the skin from the fruit, but still it squeezes the skin so much that you get the rubbish from the skin in your juice.

They have nutrients in the tomato skin

Cooked tomatoes are best because they bring out the lycopene.

What brand do you buy?

I love tomato juice, but unfortunately, I have a salty tooth, the way most people have sweet tooths.  I love salty foods, especially pickle juice!

[MasterWolf1]

I only save my sweet tooth for one thing only ICE CREAM,, LOTS AND LOTS OF IT

It depends on the pickles because they have pickles that are sweet

[Lisa]

Dr. Dan, or any other doctors here, do you know what it means if you constantly crave salty foods?

[Lisa]

Americanhero, I agree with you.  Sweet pickles are gross.  I like the Kosher Dills and the spicy Israeli canned pickles.  The juice from the canned spicy Israeli pickles is the best!
