Yes, soy products can cause high uric acid concentrations in blood. This is because soy products contain protein which contain nitrogen. Nitrogen is poisonous in the body if it forms ammonia; therefore, the liver deaminates the blood (removes nitrogen from it)producing nitrogenous wastes, one of which is uric acid. So, more soy products comsumption means more uric acid formation.
its an acid
No, tofu does not contain uric acid. However it contains purines, which our body breaks down into uric acid. Tofu has however between half to a third of the uric acid contained in meat, so tofu is recommended as a meat substitute for people suffering from gout.
