The mechanics of gout are well understood. It is associated with red and game meat and excess of red wine.
But again, immune system creates in first contact with a cell's membrane an antibody. So when next the same cell is encountered, it is recognised, hunted and destroyed.
Inflammation is using the usual defence mechanism by bringing leukocytes, fagocytes, erythrocytes, etc. I don't believe carbs are causing inflammation. They may be recognised as an enemy by the immune system which then reacts as in an allergic reaction or as in an infection.
