tomatoes (nightshades)

My daughter has a genetic intolerance to the nightshades, the worst being tomato (and she absolutely loved pasta with Italian tomato sauce!). The nightshade family includes: potato, tomato, eggplant, peppers (red, cayenne, capsicum, chili, ground cherry & green), tobacco (1st AND 2nd hand smoke are no-no’s) and paprika.

The doctor gave us information from a Dr named Norman Franklin Childers, who wrote a book about the nightshade family being connected to arthritis type problems. The food list to avoid is very long!

    Well then, if cayenne is so bad for us as a nightshade, then why is it highly beneficial for us type “O’s”???? Now this isn’t logical the way it is presented here. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
