Whisky contains purines, and almost all alcoholic beverages contain purines. Gout patients need to pay attention to not only alcohol, but also meat, seafood and legumes need to reduce consumption. Purine metabolism will eventually generate uric acid, normally uric acid will be discharged through the kidneys, but if because of diet and other reasons caused by high uric acid or kidney disease and lead to a reduction in the discharge, will result in the accumulation of uric acid, which will lead to the occurrence of gout. If you have gout, you should reduce the intake of purine-containing foods to minimize the production of uric acid. Alcoholic beverages generally contain purines, of which beer is the highest about 5-6mg/100ml, while whiskey contains less, about 0.1mg/100ml, even if whiskey’s purine content is lower, you should also reduce the intake or stop the intake. In addition to alcohol, fish and animal offal also have high purine content and should be reduced. If there is an increase in uric acid, or even leg pain or eye lesions, it is important to seek medical attention and take professional treatment.
