Fruits that help reduce uric acid thanks to low purine content

Hương Giang (Theo Verywell Health) |

Pears can help reduce uric acid levels in the body, which is helpful for people suffering from gout.

Low purine content

Pears are very low in purines, which helps reduce the risk of uric acid buildup in the body. Purines are substances found in many foods and when broken down, they create uric acid.

High fiber

Pears are high in fiber, which helps improve digestive function and aids in the excretion of uric acid through the digestive tract. Fiber also helps with weight control, as weight gain can increase the risk of gout attacks.

Rich in water

Pears have a high water content, which helps maintain water balance in the body and aids in the excretion of uric acid through urine.

Antioxidants

Pears are rich in antioxidants like vitamin C, which help reduce inflammation and protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. Inflammation is a factor in gout attacks, so reducing inflammation can help control symptoms.
