YOUR CONTRIBUTION GOES HERE. BE THE FIRST!
We guess you are interested in a low purine gout diet and you want to learn which are the purine rich foods to be avoided, and which are the low purine foods that you'll eat. And you aren't alone!
Our main gout and purines page
is among the most visited on this website. It's considerably more viewed than any of the pages devoted to drug medications. There's no question most gout sufferers would prefer a dietary method to remove fears of another gout flare up, so you probably do too. Purine questions... readers want answers. Is it really possible to cure gout, prevent it, or reduce its occurrence, with a low purine gout diet? Plus perhaps the addition of natural remedies for gout such as cherries and celery, or the well known baking soda (bicarbonate of soda) remedy. Does anybody reading this think they have done it? If so did you combine a low purine diet with regular serum uric acid readings, watching your uric acid level fall gradually over the months? How much did your uric acid (urate) level fall? Purines from foods only make a minority percentage - about 30% - of the uric acid the body makes, or fails to excrete. So a low purine gout diet, rigorously maintained, should help to reduce serum (blood) uric acid production, but only by 1.0 - 2.0 mg/dL.
This was the kind of fall we report about on this page
And it might be enough on its own to deliver a gout cure, or alonger period between attacks. But almost certainly, if you begin the diet with a uric acid reading that isn't hovering around the hyperuricemia level of 7.0 mg/dL, it probably won't help on its own. That is to say, with a 9.0 - 10.0 mg/dL reading a diet might bring your uric acid (UA) down to 8.0mg.dL, but that's still above the hyperuricemia starting level. But combine a low purine foods diet with other natural remedies which work for you, or drug medications such as Allpurinol, Probenecid or Febuxostat, and you have a better chance of succeeding. This testimonials page can shed light on more purines questions. Were you able to determine whether you are an over producer or under excretor of uric acid? A low purine diet is likely to be more useful to those who over produce. Did you discover any high purine foods that always bring on gout attacks? Did a low purine diet reduce your uric acid level (UA)much? Although losing weight isn't the main objective, were you able to lose weight? This itself can reduce your UA level. How many low purine foods meals did you prepare on a weekly basis? One mental block to successful dieting can be unglued when you realise that most people, whilst enjoying a variety of meals, only regularly eat about 10 different full meals. (Excluding eating out). So actually not too many different meals have to be prepared anyway. How many dissimilar meals did you cook or eat? These are some of the important gout and purines questions... about which gout sufferers wonder, and which you might explain.
