Sweet potato doesn’t contain the alkaloids that white potatoes do. Many people find relief from arthritis, IBS, Hashimoto’s and other chronic inflammatory diseases by avoiding white potatoes, and the other members of the nightshade family, such as tomato, capsicum and eggplant, for a period of time.
Avoiding white potato doesn’t mean going totally without the comforting feeling they give – try sweet potato instead!
Bon appetite!
