I have eliminated night shades because of solanine being a yellow, even though potatoes, tomatoes peppers, and egg plant are a green (some pretty high green)
told to watch tyramine (found in aged, fermented or spoiled foods) found in wine, wine vinegar, aged cheese,liver, smoked meats, poultry, fish, spinach, avocado, tomatoes, bananas, prunes, raisins, Because of this I have not been eating spinach which I love. I do eat greener bananas, but not real ripe ones.
Fortunately there were only two red items, ginger & capsaicin (in chili peppers or creams that produce a warming effect)
I am patiently waiting for my Enterolab results which I expect around May 23 so I can tweek my diet even further.
