1, gout patients consume vegetables, fruits, grains and spices should not be restricted?
This is a very good question, because every day we can’t do without these foods on our table!
(1) First of all, vegetables, most of them have low purine content and belong to low purine food, while mushrooms, nori and asparagus have the highest purine content and belong to high purine food. The purine content of fresh bean vegetables is higher than that of leafy vegetables and squash, such as soybean sprouts, bean seedlings, string beans and peas have a higher purine content than rape, winter squash and eggplant. However, foreign studies have also concluded that although these foods have a high purine content, they are alkaline foods, which help eliminate uric acid and therefore have a low risk of inducing gout. In particular, although the purine content of onion and garlic is not high, but due to the strong stimulation, it is easy to trigger an acute attack of gout, it is recommended to eat as little as possible.
(2) Fruits: rich in many vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals, is a very good for health food. Fruits are sweet and very tasty because most of them contain a certain amount of glucose, sucrose and fructose. Fructose accelerates the synthesis of uric acid and sucrose produces fructose when broken down. Fructose is highest in honey, and juice drinks with added honey are best not to drink. In addition, the sugar content of dried fruit, dried fruit is very high, try to eat less, it is best to choose fresh fruit. However, the energy contained in some fresh fruits is not low. In order to control the total energy intake, the intake of fruits should be appropriately limited, and the dietary pagoda of Chinese residents recommends eating 200-400g of fruits per day.
(3) Cereals: They are the main source of our energy, and there are staple foods in all three meals a day. Cereals, coarse grains than fine grains purine content is high, wheat bran, rice bran and wheat germ belong to the medium purine content, it is recommended to eat coarse grains with fine grains every day, coarse grains accounted for 1/3 of the main food can be. (4) condiments: the variety can be described as a variety, the choice is really a headache, so I give you a summary, you just remember that there are two major categories of condiments need to limit it. The first category is high sodium condiments, such as salt, monosodium glutamate, soy sauce, sauces, curd and pickles, because sodium has the effect of precipitating uric acid, which is not conducive to uric acid discharge; the second category is the stimulating spices, such as mustard, pepper, chili, etc., which can induce acute attacks of gout.
2.Which food has the highest purine content: tofu, shiitake mushrooms and leeks?
(1) Shiitake mushroom is a food with high purine content. Some patients think that shiitake mushroom can fight against cancer and eat more of it, which results in old gout attacks. At present, mushroom feast is very popular in China, and many gout patients get sick at night after eating mushroom feast.
(2) Many gout patients believe that they cannot eat soy products because of their high purine content. In fact, gout patients are not completely unable to eat soy products, this is because part of the purine dissolved in water during the production of tofu, so that the purine content in tofu is reduced by about 2/3, tofu belongs to the medium purine content of food. Some nutrition experts at home and abroad believe that the intake of beans and their products does not raise uric acid, and even has a protective effect. 1 cup of soy milk or 2 taels of tofu per day will not cause a significant increase in purine intake, so it can be eaten appropriately.
(3) Leeks belong to the onion and garlic vegetables, which have a low purine content and are foods with little purine content. However, leek is a strong stimulant and can easily induce acute attacks of gout, so it is recommended to eat as little as possible.
3, shiitake mushrooms are mushrooms, so we should eat less, what about silver fungus and fungus?
(1) The purine content of shiitake mushrooms is very high, so many people mistakenly believe that all mushrooms are high purine food, but in fact it is not.
(2) The purine content of fungus is not high, with 8.8mg of purine per 100g of dried fungus, and the daily intake of fungus is about 5-10g, so gout patients can eat it without worry.
(3) Silver fungus is a food with medium purine content, so you should pay attention when you eat it, don’t eat too much, it’s better to control it to about 10-20g!
4, tofu can be eaten properly, what about soybeans and bean sprouts?
(1) We just talked about the medium purine content of tofu, so gout patients should eat less! What is the concept of eating less? How much to eat? Acute attack period try not to eat, remission period can eat 2-3 times a week, each time about 100g. The raw material of tofu – soy beans, which has more than twice the purine content of tofu, so soy beans should be eaten even less, try not to eat during the acute attack period, remission period can be eaten 2-3 times a week, each time no more than 50g!
(2) Bean sprouts are made of dry bean foam, in the soaking process, the nutrient content of bean sprouts has changed, the purine content has not been reduced, bean sprouts and dry beans are the same medium purine content of food, therefore, bean sprouts should also be eaten sparingly.
5.In addition to these mentioned, what else should I pay attention to in vegetables?
(1) Pickled vegetables such as sauerkraut, pickles and kimchi should be eaten sparingly: they contain increased sodium.
(2) Vegetables with high purine content such as asparagus, shiitake mushrooms, and nori should be wary.
(3) dark vegetables such as kale, rape, carrots, purple kale, etc. can be eaten more
6.Which kind of fruits should gout patients stay away from?
(1) Gout patients should first consider the purine and fructose content of fruits when choosing fruits. The purine and fructose content of strawberry is high. Although strawberries are rich in vitamin C, they have a high oxalic acid content, and if eaten with foods high in calcium, they can cause urinary stones and affect urine discharge, so it is recommended that gout patients eat fewer strawberries.
(2) Cherries contain an amazing phytochemical, anthocyanin, which can scavenge free radicals produced by human metabolism and has a strong antioxidant effect, as well as an anti-inflammatory effect, which can reduce the pain of gout patients. You should eat 20 pills a day.
(3) Kiwifruit can be eaten more, high vitamin C content, VC can promote the dissolution of uric acid salts in the tissue.
7, so many fruits, which are dangerous, which are not dangerous, how to remember?
(1) Eat less fruits with high sugar content: raisins, persimmon cake, dried dates, dried cinnamon, pineapple honey, bananas, coconuts, fresh dates, red fruits.
(2) Eat fruits with low sugar content appropriately: watermelon, melon, lemon, apricot, plum.
(3) Eat more fruits with more vitamin C: prickly pear, sour date, blackcurrant, guava, kiwi.
(4) Eat appropriate purple-red fruits: grapes, blueberries, raspberries.
(5) Eat less strawberries.
8, many people lose weight, said not to eat meat, eat more fruit, can it?
(1) scientific weight loss should be based on reducing the energy intake of the day, to achieve a balanced diet, and combined with reasonable exercise.
(2) Meat is an important source of protein, B vitamins and trace elements such as Fe and Zn in the daily diet. If you do not eat meat for a long time because of weight loss will cause a lack of these nutrients, and replace meat with fruit, is not a wise choice, because fruit contains high sugar, energy is not low, too much fruit will also increase energy intake, such as 1 day to eat 3 pounds of watermelon is equivalent to eating a large bowl of rice (about 3 two). And the sugar contained in the fruit are some simple sugar, fast absorption, easy to cause blood sugar fluctuations, generally after eating fruit will soon feel hungry.
(3) It is recommended that gout patients lose weight and can have 1-2 taels of lean meat and 1 medium-sized fruit every day to achieve a balanced diet.
9.What kind of staple food is more suitable for gout patients?
(1) Staple food is the main source of carbohydrates. If the intake of staple food is insufficient, the lack of carbohydrates in the body will easily cause the mobilization of adipose tissue and decomposition to produce a substance called ketone bodies. Ketone bodies have an inhibitory effect on the excretion of uric acid by the kidneys. It can be said that the intake of sufficient carbohydrates is conducive to uric acid excretion.
(2) coarse grains such as corn, millet, sorghum, brown rice, oatmeal contains more purine than fine grains, gout less to eat (diabetes, on the contrary, should eat more fiber composition of coarse grains).
(3) Fine grains such as top quality rice or fine white rice, top quality white flour, fine white flour and fine white bread have little purine content and are suitable for gout, but have little dietary fiber, which can easily cause fluctuations in blood sugar.
(4) Of course, coarse and fine, with fine grains as the mainstay and coarse grains in the right amount, the nutritional balance is better.
10.Does the staple food need to be controlled? How much is appropriate to eat?
Gout patients are generally fat, in order to achieve the purpose of weight control or weight loss, it is necessary to control the daily energy intake, and staple foods are our main source of energy, therefore, staple foods need to be controlled. The general energy requirement is calculated based on several factors such as age, height, weight, and physical activity. Therefore, each person’s energy needs are different, and the amount of staple food is also different. The amount of staple food in general is about 3 taels-7 taels (150g-350g) (raw weight) range. How much you need to eat, it is best to find a professional nutritionist to consult!
11.How do gout patients eat pasta?
(1) Be wary of ramen; high salt, high soup and ramen agent.
(2) Be wary of snacks: high sugar, high fat, high energy and fermentation, not easy to control weight, and high trans fatty acid content of margarine, not good for blood lipids! (3) Fermented buns; fermented yeast is high in purines.
(4) Soup dumplings, wontons and dumplings: the purine content of gravy and meat filling is very high.
(5) It is better to choose non-fermented pasta, such as noodles, pancakes, etc.
12.Which seasoning should be kept away from gout patients?
(1) Vinegar is low purine, alkaline food, softening blood vessels and lowering blood lipids, and can be consumed.
(2) MSG: it is high in purine and sodium and should be eaten sparingly.
(3) Chili pepper: excites the autonomic nerve and tends to induce acute attacks of gout.
(4) salt and soy sauce: salty seasonings, high in sodium, sodium has the effect of precipitating uric acid, which is not conducive to uric acid discharge; should be eaten sparingly, it is generally recommended that salt does not exceed 5g/d;
(5) sugar: sweet seasoning, relatively high energy, gout patients are generally overweight, need to control the total energy intake; refined sugar should be eaten sparingly.
(6) chili powder, mustard and pepper: spicy seasoning; more stimulating, excite the autonomic nerve, can induce an acute attack of gout, should be eaten less; (7) chicken essence and bone broth powder: fresh flavor seasoning; eat less.
13, difficult to remember, how to summarize?
Gout vegetables have misconceptions, mushrooms fresh beans should be alert; gout fruits need to be moderate, dried fruit high energy; gout staple food should be sufficient, coarse and fine with more benefits; gout seasoning should be noted, salty and spicy seasoning is a minefield.
