Gout prone in summer?

  The summer heat, many ventilation patients but non-stop shuttle in the major hospitals. The reason why summer is prone to gout is because summer is a good time to drink beer, eat seafood, eat barbecue, invite three or five friends, late night street a sit, mouth is happy, the next day feet but suffer …… in order to reduce the gout attack, we must pay attention to the following 5 points.  1, scientific drinking We all know that gout patients can not drink beer, then white wine, red wine?  The study shows that white wine and other strong wine has the risk of raising blood uric acid, causing gout attacks; but a small amount of red wine (118 ml per day) and gout attacks are not related.  However, some studies have concluded that red wine is also bad for gout.  Gout patients are advised not to drink beer or white wine. It is also recommended not to drink red wine, if you really crave, you can drink a little less, to ensure that 118 ml per day or less.  2, avoid eating seafood, barbecue Some seafood, animal offal and other high purine food, whether in the acute or remission period of gout should be avoided as far as possible.  Most of the meat in barbecue is a medium purine content food, too much intake will lead to an increase in uric acid and gout attack. Therefore, in the acute gout attack period, barbecue is determined not to eat, in remission can eat less.  3, air conditioning blowing leisurely uric acid salt in the low temperature environment is more likely to precipitate as crystals, deposited around the joints, causing gouty arthritis attacks.  Therefore, gout patients in the summer should be as little as possible blowing air conditioning, especially at night. More attention should be paid to avoid blowing directly against the cold air conditioning.  4, drink more water hot summer weather, increased sweating, will cause blood concentration, so that the blood uric acid rises, triggering gout attacks.  So pay attention to more water, drink about 2 000 ml of water a day. The water is good to choose from, such as plain water, light tea, sugar-free soda, etc.  In summer, gout patients can still do more than 30 minutes of aerobic exercise every day as usual, and they must remember to drink more water during the exercise.
