Natural fruit alternative to Aspirin Drug – Tomatoes

December 23, 2009 By Dr. Chetan Leave a Comment

tomatoesAspirin is a drug that acts as an anti-platelet agent and helps in maintaining the blood flow and prevents blood clot formation. But as any drug has, aspirin too has quite few side-effects like ulcers in the stomach, and bleeding the stomach. Many old aged people still keep consuming low doses of aspirin to maintain the blood flow, but the consequences can be severe at times.

A research lately has shown that Tomato seeds has a gel which can be an alternative to Aspirin due to the same medicinal value. Professor Asim Dutta-Roy from the Rowett Institute in Aberdeen made the discovery. The gel in the seeds is tasteless, and colorless, but after testing, its proven that it has no effects on the negative side, but positively it helps in maintaining healthy blood circulation, and preventing unnecessary clotting of the blood.

Discovered by a British scientists, it has been patented as Fruitflow. Research shows that a smoother blood flow can be seen within three hours of taking Fruitflow and the results can last up to 18 hours, making it ideal for daily consumption.
So better to consume Tomatoes than Aspirin doses and get a better risk-free life.
