The most famous elimination diet for osteoarthritis has some of the
most questionable research support. In the 1950's, Rutgers University
horticulturist, Norman Childers, claimed that he cured his own
osteoarthritis by eliminating plants foods of the nightshade family:
tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, and peppers. The theory is that some
people are genetically prone to joint arthritis pain when they consume the solanum
alkaloids found in nightshades. Childers conducted a study by mail in
which 5,000 people who said they had arthritis agreed to avoid
nightshades. Over a 7 year period, 70% said that nightshade
avoidance worked. However, none of the participants were examined by
medical staff prior to the study or following it. There was no control
group. The participant's reports were entirely subjective. Since then
the arthritis foundation was established in 1980, promoting the
elimination of the nightshade family from the diets of people with
arthritis. This approach has gain a wide following.
This is the list of foods in the nightshade group.
- eggplants
- red peppers
- tomatoes
- white potatoes
- tobacco
Probably due to the difficulty for
many people of maintaining this diet, we were unable to identify
any adequately controlled clinical trials to establish a scientific
basis for the effectiveness of eliminating nightshade family foods from
your diet. While excluding this food group has a large popular
following the support for it remains antidotal.
