Benefits of saffron for people with gout and high uric acid

HẠ MÂY (THEO ABOLUOWANG) |

Saffron, also known as saffron pistil, has many health benefits and helps reduce gout and high uric acid.

Saffron contains crocetin, which is not only an antioxidant but also a powerful anti-inflammatory. This substance helps fight acute and chronic inflammation, reducing pain, swelling, and redness in joints caused by gout.

Crocetin also has the effect of preventing early acute liver damage caused by toxic substances and has promise in the treatment of chronic cholecystitis.

Saffron has antioxidant properties and contains many nutrients that are beneficial to the body, helping to reduce risk factors for gout.

At the same time, it can keep renal capillaries dilated, increase blood flow to the kidneys, and promote the repair of inflammatory damage.

Saffron helps improve microcirculation, promote secretion and bile secretion, thereby reducing abnormally high levels of globulin and total bilirubin, and can also be used to treat cirrhosis after chronic viral hepatitis.

Therefore, drinking saffron in moderation and regularly will help prevent the risk of high uric acid and gout.

Besides, you should also have a reasonable diet, avoid foods rich in purines such as organs, seafood and red meat, alcoholic beverages, beer and wine...
