To support uric acid excretion, you should maintain a daily water intake of about 2,000 ml. In healthy people, 80% of uric acid is excreted through the kidneys, so drinking enough water every day helps prevent and treat gout, preventing uric acid accumulation.
Natri bicarbonate (salt or baking soda) if used properly, can neutralize uric acid and regulate the pH of urine, limiting crystallization. However, people with kidney problems should consult a doctor before using.
You can change your water drinking habit by using chamomile root tea. This tea has the effect of reducing uric acid, preventing gout and improving high blood fat, high blood pressure, and high blood sugar. Chamomile contains many valuable active ingredients such as flavonoids, proanthocyanidins, chrysanthemin, ubiquinone... helping to lower blood fat, blood pressure and blood sugar.
Chamomile root extract is especially useful for people with high uric acid due to eating a lot of foods rich in purines. In addition, chamomile root tea also helps reduce belly fat, supports weight loss and boosts immunity thanks to the active ingredient cyanidin.
People with high uric acid and gout can eat 5-10 grams of chamomile root, steep in hot water like tea, and drink twice a day. However, patients with gout with severe heart failure, severe kidney failure or severe edema should not drink too much water, and should follow the doctor's instructions.
