Flavonoid supplement
Flavonoid deficiency is an important factor in urate formation.
Too little flavonoid content in the body will accelerate the purine metabolism of uric acid.
When uric acid concentration is too high, it will deposit in joints, cartilage, soft tissue and kidneys in the form of sodium salts, causing joint swelling, gout, and even kidney failure.
Flavonoid supplementation means supplementing with urate formation inhibitors, which can help slow urate formation and protect joints and kidney tissue.
Green tea is not only rich in flavonoids but also contains polyphenols that can help lower uric acid levels in the blood and reduce the risk of gout.
Exercise more
Obesity will also increase uric acid levels in the body to a certain extent.
Therefore, losing weight can achieve the purpose of controlling uric acid in the body. However, losing weight is a long-term process, you should not rush but must combine it with diet.
Regarding diet, you should choose foods that are low in calories, low in fat and high in fiber. Do more aerobic exercises, jogging, swimming, cycling, etc.
Don't sit too long.
People who sit more than 8 hours a day have a 10% higher risk of gout because sitting for a long time causes water retention in the body, causing edema, leading to poor blood circulation, affecting metabolism and uric acid excretion in the body.
When the excretion of uric acid is hindered, it will remain in the body, causing high uric acid levels, causing gout and even kidney failure.
