Should people with high uric acid stir-fry vegetables such as celery and zucchini with animal fat to enhance flavor?
People with high uric acid should limit the use of a lot of animal fat because this type of fat contains a lot of saturated fat, which can increase the risk of dyslipidemia and overweight, thereby causing disadvantages for uric acid control.
Priority should be given to low-fat cooking methods such as boiling, steaming, pan-frying or stir-frying with small amounts of vegetable oil such as olive oil, canola oil.
