Easy-to-find sour that helps lower uric acid quickly

    HƯƠNG GIANG (THEO BMJ) |

    Star fruit is not only a familiar fruit but also an effective "assistant" in helping control uric acid - the main cause of gout.

    1. Rich in vitamin C helps eliminate uric acid

    Star fruit contains a rich amount of vitamin C, which stimulates the kidneys to increase the excretion of uric acid through urine. According to research published in BMJ, regular vitamin C supplementation helps significantly reduce uric acid levels in the blood - the main factor causing gout.

    2. Alkaline to help balance body pH

    Star fruit is slightly alkaline, helping to neutralize the acidic environment in the body. When the pH of the blood is balanced, the metabolism of purines occurs more stably, reducing the risk of uric acid accumulation. This is an important factor in preventing and supporting the treatment of gout.

    3. Antioxidants help protect cells

    In addition to vitamin C, star fruit also contains flavonoids and polyphenols antioxidant compounds that can prevent free radical cell damage and inflammation caused by uric acid. Regular consumption of star fruit can slow the progression of gout-related complications.

    Note

    People with kidney disease should not eat a lot of star fruit due to the risk of caramboxin accumulation - a substance that can be toxic to the central nervous system.
