Uric acid is formed when the digestive system breaks down purines in our food. A diet low in purines helps by allowing excess uric acid to be flushed out in the urine. Here are some foods that prevent gout. 1.Pineapple Pineapple contains an enzyme called bromelain that is an anti-inflammatory. Research has found that supplementing with bromelain may relieve the pain associated with gout. 2.Ginger Ginger is a powerful anti-inflammatory that has been found reapeatedly in clinical studies to reduce chronic inflammation. One study in mice found that a compound in ginger may help to reduce the inflammation associated with uric acid buildup. 3.Turmeric Turmeric has long been recognized as an anti-inflammatory by many cultures and has been proven in several studies. Some experts recommend a daily dose of turmeric to reduce the inflammation associated with gout. 4.Cherry Juice Cherry juice has been used to alleiviate gout symptoms for decades. Small studies in Italy and the United States have reported sucess with cherry juice as a gout treatment, though scientists are not certain what mechanism is active in producing this result. Cherry juice does not appear to lower uric acid levels directly but research suggests that its antiinflammatory properties may play a role in reducing gout attack occurrence from 3-4 times per year to about once a year. 5.Hot Peppers Hot peppers are rich in vitamin C which has been shown to reduce uric acid levels. 6.Watercress Watercress contains moderate levels of vitamins and minerals and is reputed to be very beneficial to the kidneys. It may help to rid the body of excess uric acid. 7.Lemons Studies have found that the higher a person's vitamin C intake, the lower the incidence of gout. Try adding lemon to your water every day to alleviate gout symptoms. Wah u so power ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allopurinol if long term... once more or less ok, should try to go for moderate exercise. For me, jogging and sweating actually helps a lot.

Kangadrool Supersonic April 4, 2013 Share April 4, 2013 What you eat is what you get. Change diet and have a balanced diet. Be more observant and discover for yourself what foods go well and what foods are junk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CH_CO 6th Gear April 4, 2013 Share April 4, 2013 (edited) Oldenlandia water , try to drink some then alot of water , as it promotes diuresis . Best way to reduce uric acid is to urine more. Of course provided if your kidney is good. As for chinese herd i thnk tu fu ling , but this one better consult your tcm practioner, do remember to avoid black tea. Or our regular tea we drink. My uncle had it for years and it got better after he took some. Edited April 4, 2013 by CH_CO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
