Gout patients can generally consume instant noodles, but not instant noodle soup. The main ingredient of instant noodles itself is flour, which is a low purine food and can be consumed by gout patients. However, instant noodle soup contains a lot of condiments, even concentrated from meat and seafood soup, and the purine content in the soup is high, which is a high purine food and is not recommended for gout patients. As a vegetarian food with low nutritional content, instant noodles can increase satiety and gout patients can choose foods with higher nutritional value instead. Gout patients should not consume foods with high purine content, i.e. foods with purine content ≥150mg per 100g of ingredients, such as beef, lamb, seafood, animal offal, beer, hotpot and asparagus, etc. Gout patients should limit or not consume them. During an acute attack of gout, in addition to limiting the intake of the above-mentioned high purine foods, the daily water intake should be increased to at least 2000ml per day to promote uric acid excretion. In the acute stage of gout, patients can use drugs such as colchicine, which is specific for the treatment of acute attacks of gout, or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, glucocorticoids, etc. for treatment.
