Although some foods/drinks in your diet will allow gout flare-ups changing your diet will not eliminate gout. Most of the time gout is caused by a high uric acid. This may be because your body produces too much or that the kidney does not eliminate the uric acid effectively enough. A good resource to consult is www.gout.com or to speak with your physician.
