When cellular materials are eaten and that is most of our diet, purines are eaten along with them. Some foods have more purines then others and there are actually very few with none. The body metabolizes these purines into uric acid which is then disposed of with urine via the kidneys and also through the large intestine with feces some also leaves the body with sweat. However hen the kidneys are unable to filter enough of the uric acid out of the blood stream it reaches a point where it crystallizes int fine sharp crystals that settle in various places of the body causing extreme pain and other disorders.
