Hyperuricemia, the "love fanatic", is on a global rampage and is taking over as the number one metabolic disease. The accompanying complications of gout are also on the rise, making people pay attention to the dietary aspects of the disease. Gout sufferers need to be as careful with their food choices as they are with their love, avoiding the intake of "exogenous purines" but also finding those "sweet treats" that can lower uric acid levels in the body. Every gout sufferer must not only be fully committed but also make smart decisions. After all, the dietary battle for gout sufferers is also a battle that requires caution and insight.
The dietary battle for gout sufferers is like a "purine war"! The goal is to reduce the amount of purines consumed from food because purines are the "raw materials" for uric acid in the body.
To reduce uric acid production, you need to reduce purine intake, like cutting off the enemy's supply lines! Imagine that purines are the "black marketeers" that provide the "ammunition" for uric acid. To reduce the production of uric acid, you have to cut off the supply of purines, just like the black market! In daily life, gout sufferers have to be like spies, always on the lookout for "traps" of high-purine foods. These foods are like hiding a lot of purine "secret base", once stepped into, uric acid production straight up! Therefore, to avoid "stepping on the mine", try to eat more low-purine foods, as they are a safe "haven".
Gout patients face meat food, that is really like walking on a tightrope as careful ah! They always feel that these delicious dishes are high purine "minefield", so lamb, beef and these traditional meats have become the target of strict control, some friends even think that the control of the diet is to say goodbye to meat.
But, the purine content of lamb and beef, all belong to the kind of "medium purine" category. And when you pick lean meat to eat, that purine content can be reduced to only 40 mg / 100 grams, directly into the "low purine" ranks! So, gout patients in the non-exacerbation period can rest assured and boldly savor the delicious lamb and beef, they do not have a big impact on uric acid levels. Don't let those high purine misconceptions stop you from enjoying your food, eat meat in moderation, and gout will not come to your door!
Gout and high uric acid patients control their diet, they have to be as resourceful as a secret agent! Facing the temptation of high-purine food, they have to be wide-eyed and recognize it like a spy. Seafood with shells, sea fish, animal offal, thick broth, etc., are high purine "agents", once ingested, uric acid levels may skyrocket. In addition to these high-risk foods, other foods are not can not be touched. As long as you control the amount of food, no more than 100 grams of meat per day, basically "safe". Like walking a tightrope, to maintain a balance, do not fall into the purine "trap"! Also, changing the way of cooking is a good way to reduce purine. The "fried, stewed" into "boiled", purines are dissolved in water. In this way, only eat meat, and do not drink soup, you can effectively reduce purine intake. See, a controlled diet is not so terrible, as long as the brain, gout and high uric acid patients can also enjoy the fun of food!
Gout and high uric acid sufferers, sometimes expect too much from diet control, thinking that if they just keep their mouths shut, their uric acid levels will whoosh down. But the reality is that with too strict control of the diet, the effect may not be obvious, and it will make your table monotonous and boring. In the long run, food variety is reduced and nutritional balance is broken. Physical fitness may gradually decline, and immunity will be weakened. This is not only because the problem of purine metabolism has not been solved, but may become worse.
