    I'm taking cherry fruit extract to keep my gout (a type of arthritis) at bay and so far so good.

    I avoid tomatoes, green peppers, white veggies, white flour, white sugar, and eat alot more dark leafy green veggies and plenty of wild caught salmon. I've heard that cantaloupe is an excellent anti-inflammatory type food.

    Oh, and this time of year I am soaking in the tub more to help the arthritic pain.

    yes- for inflammatory arthritis, a lot of people say to avoid all the nightshades.

    That includes potatoes and eggplants as well as tomatoes and peppers (all peppers, not just green bell peppers).

    Oh noooooo, but I like all those things. Can't I just cook them in yogurt?
