There are many websites that could help you find information on a gout diet. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/gout-diet/MY01137 is one website that has a detailed description of a gout diet, including the purpose, diet details, results, and risks of being on a gout diet.
The gout diet is not a diet to lose weight. It is a diet you follow if you have gout. Please see the following: www.mayoclinic.com/health/gout-diet/MY01137 -

It has not been my experience that movement helps the conditions of gout. When you get it, ice and not moving the affected area is what helps the most. The second most important thing to do is to change your diet. Usually diet is the cause of gout and it's the one thing you can do to cure it and hopefully prevent yourself from getting it again.
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
Gout can be inherited or it can be caused secondary to other disease such as kidney failure, certain enzyme malfunctions, chemotherapy (high cell turn over) and diet such as alcohol consumption and red meat and seafood.
Without treatment, gout may cause severe damage in the joints and cause the tissues in the surrounding area to be destructed. If the joints are continuously destructed and the gout is left untreated then there could be a result of lasting deformities (such as permanent feet damage).
at present ther is no evidence linking diet with arthritis aside from gout and some alergic reactions.
the inheritance of certain genes or from being overweight and eating a rich diet. In some cases, another disease (such as lymphoma, leukemia, or hemolytic anemia ) may be the underlying cause of the uric acid buildup that results in gout
It does not so much cause gout as interfere with the body's ability to deal with it.
