Gout patients can eat flat mushrooms in moderation if they are not in the acute attack stage and do not have flat mushroom allergy.
Gout is a disease in which the metabolism of uric acid is impaired and excessive uric acid forms crystals in the body, which are deposited in the joints and other parts of the body, causing symptoms such as joint swelling and pain. Therefore, gout patients should avoid seafood, animal offal and other high-purine foods, limit the intake of medium-purine foods, and focus on a low-purine diet.
Flat mushrooms are medium purine mushrooms, low-fat, containing dietary fiber, beneficial to the human body. Gout patients can eat flat mushrooms if they are not in acute attacks and have no allergy to flat mushrooms. It should be eaten in moderation to avoid gouty arthritis attacks caused by fluctuations in blood uric acid levels due to over-eating.
It is recommended that gout patients go to the hospital for consultation and standardized treatment under the guidance of doctors.
