Tomatoes are not vegetables as many people think. They are a fruit. They come in

different sizes and colours. Tomatoes are a basic ingredient of many popular foods

like pizzas and ketchup and healthier dishes like salads and sauces of all kinds.
Tomatoes contain essential nutrients and are high in vitamin C. This vitamin helps

the body grow and it can help to repair it. In addition, tomatoes are a source of

vitamin H. This vitamin helps the body in the production of energy. Tomatoes also

contain minerals like potassium and copper. These minerals help to regulate body

functions. Finally, tomatoes can help digestion because they are a good source of

fibre.

In summary, you should eat tomatoes in your daily diet, because they are a tasty

fruit with many benefits for your health.
