Nightshade vegetables are plant foods that grow at night instead of during the day, such as potatoes and tomatoes. They offer the body a variety of vitamins and minerals but can also cause pain in certain individuals. These foods may also aggravate pre-existing conditions, such as osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia.
