Ketchup's health implications
Experts have confirmed that ketchup, despite containing the antioxidant lycopene—which is beneficial for heart health and the prevention of certain types of cancer—also contains high amounts of sugars and artificial sweeteners, especially in the large spoonfuls consumed by many households daily. This puts them at risk of exceeding their daily sugar intake and may lead to a preference for unhealthy foods. They also noted that cooking increases the body's ability to absorb antioxidants, but excessive consumption of commercial varieties could be harmful. It is emphasized that eating ketchup in moderation is the best choice. The study also clarified that ketchup is not inherently a healthy food, but it is not entirely harmful if consumed in reasonable quantities.
