Vegetables that are good for health but easily increase uric acid

Hương Giang (Theo Everyday Health) |

Certain vegetables such as asparagus, spinach, cauliflower and mushrooms are high in purines, which can increase uric acid levels in the body.

Asparagus

Asparagus is high in purines, which can be converted into uric acid in the body. Consuming asparagus can increase uric acid levels, causing gout attacks or making the condition worse.

People with gout should limit their intake of asparagus or eat it only in very small amounts and infrequently.

Spinach

Spinach is also a vegetable high in purines. Like asparagus, spinach can increase uric acid levels in the body, causing gout symptoms.

Limit spinach consumption, especially in daily meals.

Cauliflower

Cauliflower contains a significant amount of purines. Consuming cauliflower can increase uric acid levels, which contributes to the formation of urate crystals in the joints, causing pain.

People with gout should eat cauliflower in moderation and consider replacing it with other vegetables that are lower in purines.

Mushroom

Some mushrooms, especially shiitake and button mushrooms, are high in purines. Mushrooms can increase uric acid levels in the body, causing gout attacks.

Limit your intake of mushrooms, especially those high in purines.
