Tips to Manage Gout
Avoid overindulging in high-purine foods1
Adhering to a healthy and balanced diet may help control blood uric acid at normal levels. Practice eating in moderation and go easy on these 4 high-purine foods and drinks:
Alcohol
There is a link between gout attacks and the consumption of alcohol, such as beer.
Red Meat, Lamb & Pork
These meats contain high purine levels which can increase the levels of uric acid.
Seafood
Anchovies, shellfish, and sardines are high in purines.
Sugary & Sweet Foods
Candies, baked goods, and even sweet fruit juices can cause gout attacks due to their high fructose content.
Maintain a healthy lifestyle2
Drink plenty of plain water throughout the day
Get regular exercise and maintain a healthy weight
Choose low-impact activities such as walking to prevent joint injuries
Follow your doctor’s recommended treatment plan
With proper diagnosis and management including weight and diet control, gout can be controlled. For gout patients, you are advised to consult your healthcare professional first before using any medicine that can help reduce your uric acid content.
For the long term, it is recommended that gout sufferers remove the contributing factors that could raise the uric acid levels in the body.
