Fun Fact:

Potatoes are part of the night shade family. There is a greater awareness to the growing amount of people with a sensitivity to nightshade vegetables. One of the main complaints is the inflammatory response some people have after eating them. White potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant are the most common of the night shade vegetables. The best way to know if you do have a sensitivity to them is to remove them from your diet for about 1 month and then bring each one back in giving space of 1-3 days to identify a reaction. You may have a reaction to one, but not all of them.

Our favorite method we recommend is to do an anti-inflammatory food Reset.  In this program you’ll learn to understand how foods affect you and if Nightshades are a food your body is able to digest. Many people respond differently to nightshades. They may experience symptoms such as stuffy nose, sinus congestion, joint pain, headache, digestive issues such as IBS or other digestive issues, swelling, inflammation, rashes and more.  We offer many ways for you to learn which foods work best in your body. We have a free 3-day trial, a 7-day or our best program is our 21-Day!
