The first thing to prevent gout attack is to moderate the diet and eat less high purine food. What are high purine diet and low purine diet? Generally speaking, animal offal, seafood and beer are high purine factors, while most fruits and vegetables are low purine factors, but it is worth noting that not all seafood are high purine diet, such as sea cucumber, jellyfish skin and seaweed are low purine diet and can be consumed; on the contrary, not all vegetables are low purine diet, such as soybeans, lentils, shiitake mushrooms and nori are high purine diet. Some freshwater fish such as silver carp and anchovies are also part of a high purine diet. Animal skins such as pig skin are on a low purine diet, while fish skin is on a high purine diet. Cherries are recommended because of their ability to promote uric acid excretion and anti-inflammatory properties. When cooking high purine foods, it is recommended to boil them in water first and eat them without water, as most purines are soluble in water. Drink plenty of water, and drink alkaline water appropriately, which will help excretion of uric acid. It is especially important to have your blood uric acid checked regularly, and if you develop hyperuricemia, then you must actively take uric acid-lowering medication to control your uric acid levels.
