In the 1830s, ketchup, particularly tomato ketchup, was often promoted as a medicinal tonic. It was believed to treat various ailments, including digestive issues, jaundice, and even as a remedy for constipation. Some claims suggested it could boost overall health due to its perceived nutritional benefits. However, these medicinal uses were largely based on anecdotal evidence rather than scientific validation.
