Gout patients can eat cookies, but not too much. The onset of gout is related to hyperuricemia, so you can’t eat high purine foods, such as animal offal, seafood, alcohol, or drinks with high fructose content. The development of gout is related to hyperuricemia, so the key to treatment is to control the blood uric acid within the normal range, generally recommended to control the blood uric acid below 300μmol/L. In addition to a strict low purine diet, most patients also need to take long-term uric acid-lowering medication.
