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.
