*Love ketchup? You’re not alone—but doctors say it’s worth a closer look.* Most store-bought ketchup, like Heinz, is made from tomato *concentrate*, not fresh tomatoes. And it’s loaded with sugar—*two teaspoons per serving*—thanks to both high-fructose corn syrup and corn syrup. One bottle can pack over 30 tablespoons of sugar. Labels also list vague terms like “natural flavors” and “spices,” which can hide unknown additives. *Health pros warn:* Overusing ketchup could contribute to high blood pressure, weight gain, and even sugar addiction—especially in kids. ✅ **Quick tips:** – Choose low-sugar options, – Use it sparingly, – Try homemade versions with real ingredients A little awareness = healthier choices🍅
