Ketchup cure disease

5 POINT True or False | EP.5: Ketchup Treats

In the past, ketchup used to be a modern medicine that only needs to be eaten by doctor.

Do you think this is true? Let's comment. There is a solution at the end of the clip...

When it comes to ketchup, everyone thinks of French fries, fried chicken or pizza, right?

But can you believe that in the past, ketchup was not placed on the dining table, but in the "medicine cabinet," and there was a state of modern medicine that requires prescription!

Back in the 1830s, when people in America had a lot of diarrhea and indigestion, until a doctor named Dr. John Cook Bennett discovered that tomatoes contained nutrients that could cure these symptoms, he took the idea of simmering ketchup and extracting it into "ketchup bolts" sold in pharmacies across the country!

The products advertised in those days were diarrhea, flu, jaundice, and sold well in the water until the brand of copying filled the market, before it was developed to be easier to eat and become the ketchup bottle that we use today.

If you think this is true...You're right, sir!

🔍 The facts of the matter:

This is true in the history of medicine. In the 1830s, tomatoes were considered a real gastrointestinal medicine. Dr. Bennet published a research paper and made it a pill for sale. Until in the 1840s, the market for tomato pills began to collapse because there were too many people making fake pills. Later, people stopped taking them as pills and seasoned them to be used as dipping sauces. The company that made them famous worldwide as seasoning sauces was Heinz in 1876.
