Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to Caroline's No Nightshade Kitchen: Arthritis Diet. Fourteen years ago, I discovered that I have arthritis in my hands. The pain was sudden and severe. For three years, I went to numerous doctors but found no relief for the pain I was enduring. A friend told me about the effect nightshades have on some people with arthritis. She explained that tomatoes, peppers, white potatoes, and eggplant, which are in the nightshade plant family, contain alkaloids. Alkaloids can cause serious inflammatory issues for people who have developed a high sensitivity to this chemical. I was desperate, and although I doubted eliminating nightshades from my diet would help, I tried it. In a few days, the pain, swelling, and redness disappeared completely, and stayed away as long as I avoided nightshade foods. I want to share what I've learned about nightshades, and the harm these foods cause many of us who suffer from symptoms of arthritis and other inflammatory illnesses. Eliminating these foods from your diet may significantly relieve your pain, and for many like myself, we live pain free. At the same time, I love to cook! I have developed the recipes in this book which provide savory food options without nightshades. The change in your diet is a simple price to pay for living better with arthritis. Arthritis changed my life, and now I'm changing it back. Living without nightshade foods made it possible. Caroline Thompson
