Is bell pepper allowed on the Tayyibat diet?
No
No. Dr. Al-Awadi excluded this food himself.
Why bell pepper is off the list
It's a nightshade. Its seeds and skin carry natural chemicals called alkaloids. That's why bell peppers and raw tomato are out, and tomato only comes back peeled, seeded and cooked.
The detail
Solanine-family alkaloids, concentrated in seeds and skin. Bell peppers and raw tomato are excluded; peeled, seeded, cooked tomato is the rare exception.
The rule behind the verdict
The nightshade family
Did the doctor say this himself?
