“Gout can drink lemon water to lower blood uric acid” is not true.
Gout and elevated blood uric acid levels are closely related, gout attacks generally advocate drinking a lot of water, the best daily intake of more than 2,000 ml, easy to promote uric acid with urine excretion. And every 100g of lemon purine content of about 3.4mg, belonging to the low purine food, gout people can eat in moderation. But lemon water to reduce the effect of blood uric acid is very small, only as an auxiliary means.
Gout people should follow the doctor’s instructions for regular treatment, not lemonade as a gout uric acid lowering treatment. In the interictal period and chronic period can follow the doctor’s advice to take allopurinol, febuxostat and other drugs to reduce blood uric acid.
Gout patients are advised to go to regular hospitals in time, follow the doctor’s instructions for standardized treatment and reasonable diet, do not self-medication.
