A diet high in purines leads to gout - the body cannot effectively breakdown uric acid, which is a byproduct of the breakdown of purines - this uric acid buildup is the cause of gout.
If the diet is modified to restrict the intake of purines then gout symptoms can be reduced. Foods rich in purines, which should be avoided include beer, wine, fortified wines, red meat, offal and seafood
