Take allopurinol for gout. I have for 10 years. Not had a single attack.
Carbs have nothing to do with gout. I'm fact most of the foods that raise uric acid levels are low carb.
Controlling diabetes by diet is preferable but with gout just take the pill and never worry again!
Agree 100%, I was diagnosed with Gout in my early 30s and struggled for nearly a decade , tried everything.. and i mean everything, I was fit as a fiddle when diagnosed / tea total etc etc........ gave up all the bad things , even went vegetarian for a while to eliminate purines, tried taking cherry juice and all the other "cures" with no joy............was in agony several times a week........
Then by a coincidence happened to see my old childhood doctor, who basically sat me down and said "its obviously not your diet and lifestyle" , so take the pills or you will be crippled in later life...
So took the pills and
no pain for nearly ten years.................
