Tomatoes are indeed excellent and have many medecinal prpoperties, but, they

are certainly considered a fruit to be wary of if one suffers from any of

the arthritic diseases or from IBS - and IBS, IBD & /or Chrone's disease 'very

often' accompany arthritic conditions, especially Ankylosing Spondylitis.

 

Not only tomatoes, but also potatoes, onions and the capsicum family are

known to upset the gut, a gut that is compromised. The reaction of the gut is

well documented and patients need to be very aware of possible problems in

this connnection - suggest a 'try it and see' trial and error programme.

 

Would suggest that IF one does have a tomatoe reaction, then to try just the

pulp of the tomatoe - no skin nor seeds. With the potatoe, no skins (though

many AS patients are on a LSD/NSD - low/no starch diet. The diet having to

do with the Klebsiella Pneumoniae bacteria, starches feed such a bacteria).

Check to see IF one reacts to onions - which are also excellent for the

health, but not if one is gut-reactive to the onion! Capsicums, can be

heat-charred then successfully skinned. Try each item in turn to determine IF

one does

throw a reaction.

Members of the Klebsiella genus typically express 2 types of antigens on

their cell surface. The first, K antigen, is a lipopolysaccharide of which 77

varieties exist. The second is O antigen, a capsular polysaccharide with 9

varieties._[3]_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klebsiella_pneumoniae#_note-0)

Both contribute to pathogenicity and form the basis for subtyping.

 

Research conducted at King's College, London has implicated molecular mimicry

between HLA-B27 and two molecules in Klebsiella microbes as the cause of

_ankylosing spondylitis_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankylosing_spondylitis)
