Part 2 - Post #6 - Series on Nightshades, Alkaloids, and Cholinesterase Inhibitors.![]()
When I first cut out nightshades, I didn't realize I was still consuming them. Almost all condiments and dressings have nightshades. They may be listed in the ingredients, or it may just say spices, or natural flavors.![]()

There are some brown mustards that are nightshade free. There are some US brands that do not have nightshades in all their condiments: Sir Kensington does not add nightshades to their mayo. Grillo's pickles do not add nightshades.![]()

Part 2 - Post #4 - Series on nightshades, alkaloids, and cholinesterase inhibitors.![]()
Natural flavors can mean so many different things. It could mean garlic and onion, it could mean a nightshade, or some sort of GMO flavor enhancer. The problem is, we don't know. This make identifying food triggers very difficult. For example, an ingredient often hidden as a natural flavor is sweetener called Thaumatin II.![]()

Thaumatin II, when produced using the host plant N. benthamiana, may contain low levels of alkaloids like nicotine and anabasine. These alkaloids are present because N. benthamiana shares metabolic pathways with plants from the nightshade family, such as tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, and eggplants, which naturally contain these.![]()
