Many people like to eat tubers that can increase uric acid

    Hương Giang (Theo FitDay) |

    Taro, a nutritious food, should be taken with caution as it can affect uric acid levels in the body.

    People with gout should consider limiting their intake of taro in their daily diet. Taro contains significant amounts of calcium oxalate, a compound that can increase the pain and symptoms of gout.

    Calcium oxalate is a natural form of oxalate found in many foods. When too much oxalate is consumed, it can form crystals in the kidneys. These crystals interfere with the body's ability to remove uric acid, causing uric acid levels to rise and worsening gout.

    Additionally, consuming too many oxalate-rich foods like taro can cause other kidney-related problems, such as kidney stones. Kidney stones are not only painful, but can also damage the kidneys and affect kidney function in the long term.

    Therefore, people with gout should be careful with the amount of taro consumed.
