I would say that sounds more like a food intolerance, sensitivity or allergy than a form of poisoning such as is described in the article https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/321883
The article includes some suggestions for diagnosis, as well as food substitutes.
Does this sound like what you experience? Have you been seen by an allergist?

My reason for posting here on the mayo clinic forum is to hopefully get some medical expert views. This condition is known to medicine, however is not well researched or understood. Some people react with gastric issues and others like me have symptoms similar to arthritis with joint pain. I’m hoping that someone has experience with this and can help give some advice as to potential remedies. I know full well that abstinence is a solution, however I do not want to give up on eating tomatoes, peppers, potatoes and aubergine. I have been suggested to take cherry extract as an eventual remedy to counter the inflammatory reaction.
