Yes. “Tomatoes are rich in vitamin C which helps the metabolism and releases water from the kidneys to flush out waste.”

Tomatoes also “contain potassium, which is a natural diuretic.”

“All fruits and vegetables encourage the body to jettison fluid because they contain potassium, which flushes out both excess salt and water. Bananas, beetroot and tomatoes are particularly rich in potassium.
Citrus fruits, melons, cucumbers, watercress, carrots, salad leaves and celery also have natural diuretic effects.”

“The most common foods that work as natural diuretics are watermelon, cucumbers, watercress, artichokes, beets, oats and tomatoes.”
