Ginger is often considered to have potential anti-inflammatory properties, and some studies suggest that it may help reduce inflammation in the body. However, there is limited direct evidence to support the idea that ginger specifically reduces uric acid levels.

Uric acid is a waste product that is produced during the breakdown of purines, which are substances found in certain foods and also produced by the body. Elevated levels of uric acid can lead to a condition called hyperuricemia, which is associated with gout and kidney stones.

No

yes

No. Excess uric acid is the culprit; either too much is produced or the excess is not excreted (in urine). The exact cause is unknown but it may run in the family, is more common in males and postmenopausal women, those who drink alcohol, and from some medications. Go Meat!

They are the same but red wine has more health benefits.

There are many claims that bananas are helpful for gout sufferers.

No, I should think quite the opposite. Kale is rich in iron and minerals. Gout comes from rich foods most often, such as creams and fatty foods.

americans and many Caribbean islands cook kale using large amounts of pork fat and salt. In that case, a kale dish of that variety would be compared to drinking a dinner of fatty cream...so don't! :-)

yes

No they can not.

Plain popcorn is not bad for gout. However, eating it with too much salt and butter is not good for gout or overall health.

Ofcourse, I used to drink iced tea while going out. Actually i used to take iced tea with lemon slice as a garnish. Even it is named as sun tea. Where sun tea sometimes may served with syrup or lemon.

Mayonnaise is basically made from eggs, dairy foods and vinegar. These are not high in purines which can be the cause of excessive uric acid in the blood.

Beetroot is among the foods that are the lowest in purines making them one of the safer foods for a gout sufferer to eat.

Your diet should be at the direction of your physician if you have an chronic illness, not suggested by random users of the internet.

Rhubarb is good if you have gout but don't use too much sugar.

When Uric Acid turns out not to be the problem then it could be blamed on Oxalic Acid. and care must be taken with eating some vegetables,such as spinach for instance, and fruit such as Raspberies, Strawberries, Gooseberries, Rhubarb, Apricots, Persimmons and Peaches. Mango has no Oxalate but in susceptible and particular people will cause Gout.

Purines in pineapple is very low @ 19 Mg per 100 grams on average. purines are the component of cell nuclei that are turned to uric acid in the metabolism. go to the related link below for information on purine content

No. Only things with meat it can be a problem for gout.

No. Honeybees don't urinate and wherever possible they will only defecate outside the hive.

it's my first time to have gout. i have no idea what food should i eat while I'm having the attack.

yes in fact it can.

It would seem that grapefruit is moderately low in purines and therefore would not in itself play a large role in a gout attack.

However, things are not as they always seem with gout. Personal experience says that drinking Grapefruit Juice 16 oz's a day or more can actually bring on a gout attack. This result is repeatable with some gout sufferers, while others don't seem to be affected. When in doubt go lightly on the Grapefruit Juice.
