Foods That Cause Gout - Facts

Foods that cause gout are foods with especially high concentrations of purines, so you are advised to avoid these foods completely. Discover the foods that cause gout and how they cause gout here...

What are 'purines' and what role do they play in causing gout? Purines are natural chemical compounds that occur in our cells and in our food. They are vital to us because they convert 'genes' into protein and food into energy, as well as numerous other good things.

After they are done, they break-down into uric acid in our bloodstream, the levels of which are controlled by our kidneys. Sometimes though, the kidneys cannot do this efficiently enough and we are left with too much uric acid in our bloodstream.

Your gout occurs when this excess of uric acid crystallizes in your joints causing you extreme pain and with the usual symptoms of heat, redness, swelling and inflammation.

As purines are at the start of all this (i.e. where the uric acid comes from) its clear that you must avoid the purine-rich foods that cause gout. So here are the foods that can cause gout and which you should avoid...

Anchovies, bouillon, brains, broth, consomme, dried legumes, fish, goose, gravy, heart, herring, kidneys, liver, mackerel, red meat, meat extracts, mincemeat, mussels, partridge, poultry (especially turkey), roe, sardines, scallops, shellfish, shrimps, sweetbreads, baker's yeast, brewer's yeast, yeast extracts. And you must avoid all alcohol.

But on its own the list of foods that cause gout isn't enough. Many other things come into play when considering a remedy for gout. For example, general health, lifestyle, weight, body pH, family history, etc. all have roles to play. Other things to consider are the horrible side-effects of mainstream drugs. And what role can natural home remedies play? These are just some of the considerations.

This is beyond the scope of this article, but all the necessary facts are summarized in a very popular gout report which takes you by the hand and step-by-step shows you how to get fast relief using all-natural home remedies.
