Well, well..............following on to a couple of my postings on the Chit Chat zone, having discovered I have a very low potassium level, one of the things that potassium regulates is arthritis pain
I have been told to eat more bananas and tomatoes, potatoes and celery if possible, also watercress and I am being given a supplement.
As I am diabetic and I have high BP my intake of this has to be medically managed, so don't rush out and get some without asking first!
I will take these with interest...........who knows, I might have found the answer!

I hope you have found the answer I eat tons of bananas and jacket and roast potatoes but suffering today more than usual :roll: In the summer months, I eat loads of homegrown tomatoes too, and I am sure they don't agree with my "arthritis" but I am not giving them up!

If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.0 -
I love tomatoes, too, Elna and have always been told that they are bad for the joints - presumably because they are considered acidic. From the info I read today, they must then be working both ways - making arthritis both better and worse!
I really don't think I can in fact put up my intake of either tomatoes or bananas, if I do, I will start looking like a cross between the two!
