Seafood that can cause uric acid to increase uncontrollably

Hương Giang (Theo Times of India) |

Scallops are a delicious and nutritious dish, but for people with uric acid or gout problems, they can cause some health problems.

Scallops are a popular seafood, loved for their delicious taste and high nutritional value. However, for people with uric acid or gout problems, scallops can cause some health problems due to their high purine content.

Purines are natural compounds found in many foods. When purines are broken down in the body, they create uric acid. Scallops contain high purine content, so consuming a lot of scallops can lead to high uric acid levels in the blood.

Gout is a type of arthritis caused by the buildup of uric acid crystals in the joints. Consuming scallops and other seafood with high purine content can increase the risk of gout or worsen the condition.

Symptoms of gout include pain, swelling, and inflammation in the joints, usually in the big toe, but can also affect other joints such as the ankles, knees, and wrists.

If you have uric acid or gout problems, you should limit eating scallops and other seafood that are high in purines.

Instead, you can choose foods with lower purine content such as chicken, salmon, and vegetables.

In addition, maintaining a balanced diet, drinking enough water and avoiding alcoholic beverages such as beer is also very important to control uric acid levels in the body: drink plenty of water, avoid alcoholic beverages, limit foods rich in purines, increase foods rich in vitamin C.
