Alyssa is correct; nightshades are very bad for arthritis, which is an autoimmune, inflammatory disease. Tomatoes and potatoes are major nightshade culprits and should be eliminated, or at least very restricted in any arthritis diet. And lifetime habits help the most here, so start right away either eliminating or minimizing tomatoes and potatoes from the diet if parents or other forebears suffered from arthritis. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!
