Tomatoes Belong to the Nightshade Family
Tomatoes are one of the vegetables in the nightshade (Solanaceae) family, which includes eggplant, bell peppers, and potatoes (although not sweet potatoes and yams). Anecdotal case histories link improvement in arthritis symptoms with removal of these foods; however, no case controlled scientific studies confirm these observations.
