What Food is OK to Eat For a Person Who Has Gout?

Gout is a direct result of your diet habit over the years. The more serious your gout condition is the more items you will need to strike off from your list of favorite food. You will be shocked when you see the list of food you cannot eat, which is almost 90 percent of your favorite. Instead of telling you a long list of food you can eat, it is more practical to explain to you what food you should avoid.

When you consume too much food which has high purine content such as organ meats, sardines, anchovies, mutton, and the list goes on... Most of them are high protein food from animal sources, but even some non-meat food which are high in purine too, common one that is often heard of associate with gout attack are some mushrooms, peas, beans and cauliflower.

Purines are natural substances found in all cells because it is the vital part of DNA structure. Millions of cells die within our body in a day. As cells are broken down through various bio-chemical mechanisms, significant amount of purine will be released and these free floating purines will be further broken down to uric acid which will eventually excreted out from the body through urine.

You are adding extra burden to your body if you continuously eat in more purines. Your liver and kidneys will have to work extra hard to get rid of those excessive uric acids and it will reach a point when it can take it no more and this is when those uric acids seep into your joint and crystallize to urate crystals that trigger your gout attack.

If you want to reverse the process, not only you have to minimize or cut off (the hardest thing to do) your high purine diet, you must also eat more food which is classified as alkaline food to help detoxify or neutralize those excessive acids that accumulated in your body over the years.

This change of diet is not like the slimming program that last only for a few weeks or months. In order to get rid of or cure your gout, you must gradually shift your eating habit from carnivorous towards the herbivore side and keep it so for as long as you can. It is like paying back the 'debt' over the years. Well, it is okay to be omnivore sometimes. After all, food is part of joy in life. Just like many aspects of life, do not over-indulge.
