It has always been thought that "nightshade" foods are inflammatory to people who suffer with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis & gout because of the alkaloids they contain!.

Nightshade foods include: tomatoes, potatoes (not sweet potatoes), eggplant, pimiento, cayenne, sweet & red peppers, tabasco sauce, capsaicin & other pepper family foods!.
No drinks are cited!.
Cooking is thought to decrease the effect of the alkaloids & inflammatory process on these foods!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

processed foods (anything out of a box) frozen dinners, added preservatives, because of the salt which furthers the swelling!. The diabetic diet is good and helped my aritritus, then walk!. The sedentary life is not ok!. Also don't smokeWww@Answer-Health@Com
