The objective of this study is to examine the relationship between tomato consumption and the risk of metabolicsyndrome (MetS) in Korean middle aged women. Data from the combined 2009-2011 Korean National Health andNutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) was analyzed. Tomato intake was assessed using the algorithms devel-oped to analyze the demographic data of intakes of different tomato based food commodities such as “tomato, raw”,“tomato, tomato juice”, “tomato, tomato canned”, “tomato sauce”, and “tomato ketchup”. Korean women(n=11,251) were subgrouped according to the number of the MetS risk factor (RF 0, RF 1-2, RF 3). Anthropo-metric parameters, lipid profiles, fasting glucose, and tomato intake were analyzed. Corresponding to the number ofthe MetS RF, there was a decrease in tomato intake (18.90±1.78, 16.67±1.23 and 12.84±1.23; P<0.001). Tomatointake showed a negative correlation with systosolic blood pressure, BMI, waist, and triglyceride. HDL cholesterolalso showed a significant correlation with tomato intake (r=0.023, P<0.05). In summary, the results show a rela-tionship between tomato intake and MetS in Korean middle aged women.
