Every day, there are hundreds of thousands of gout patients searching for alternative treatments that can effectively reduce (if not cure) the gout pain that has been haunting them for years. They have tried all those common gout medicines, allopurinol, colchicine, NSAIDs, cortisone shots, you name it. None of them seems to be able to treat gout effectively in the long run.
It takes years for them to finally give up hope on the common medical treatments which are proven to be just a temporary fixes. Out of desperation, they have to try whatever alternative gout treatments that said to be effective.
The most common one is the cherries. Clinical study had shown positive results of cherries in minimize the gout pain and reduce the frequency of attack. This leads to further study of the bio-chemical properties of cherries in the context of curing gout. Results shows that it is a type of flavonoid (color pigment) called anthocyanin which is a powerful antioxidant that has the anti-inflammatory benefit.
Another popular gout treatment is the use of baking soda or scientifically known as sodium bicarbonate. Baking soda is not really a natural kind of treatment because it is still considered as man-made compound. Sodium bicarbonate has the amphoteric property which means it can act as an acid (that neutralizes alkaline) or alkaline (that neutralizes acid). Thus, it can definitely lower down the uric acid level, temporarily.
Consumption of baking soda has to be carefully monitored as over consumption of it will result in some serious side effects such as headache, nausea, stomach cramps, and frequent urination. To be safe, it is better to seek doctor consultation before beginning the bake soda therapy.
The latest, most effective, and safest solution or cure for gout is the alkaline water ionizer technology. This technology is relatively new to the medical professionals. This is why it is not commonly heard of as a treatment for gout.
The water coming from your kitchen tap contains natural minerals and these minerals can be separated into acidic and alkaline. All acidic mineral ions are negatively charged while all alkaline mineral ions are positively charge. Water ionizer separates these minerals with the electrolysis chamber. There are two outlet of processed water, one coming out from the top metal hose (alkaline) and the other one discharge through the tail rubber tubing (acidic).
Naturally, alkaline mineral ions will actively look for acidic mineral ions to neutralize mutually to maintain its stability. Ionized alkaline water has lost its acidic partner after the electrolysis process and this makes it become unstable and this is good because when you drink this water in, it will actively looking for acidic compounds (including uric acid), neutralize it and get rid of it through urination or sweating.
