No, gout is caused by high uric acid levels which are caused by purines in food.

When the body doesn't process the purines properly the high uric acid in the blood

forms crystals between the joints causing great pain and inflammation

If you already have gout, phosphoric acid can trigger an episode of gout to reoccur

because of the acidic levels.
