Notes on controlling uric acid with diet

HÀ MY (THEO INDIANEXPRESS) |

Nutrition plays an important role in controlling uric acid levels, especially for people at high risk of gout.

High levels of uric acid in the blood are often associated with a diet rich in purines - a compound that is converted into uric acid in the body. Therefore, adjusting your diet is an effective way to reduce this condition.

The Harvard University research team recommends limiting consumption of red meat (such as beef, lamb) and animal organs, which are high in purines. Seafood such as sardines, anchovies, and clams should also be minimized. Research published in the journal Arthritis & Rheumatology shows that excessive consumption of these foods significantly increases uric acid levels. In addition, alcoholic beverages, especially beer, reduce the ability of the kidneys to excrete uric acid, leading to its accumulation in the blood.

To limit this condition, experts say that people with high uric acid levels should prioritize foods rich in vitamin C (oranges, kiwis, bell peppers), which help reduce uric acid levels in the blood by increasing excretion through urine. Fiber from whole grains and green vegetables (spinach, broccoli) also plays a positive role, helping the body balance acid and reduce inflammation. Research from Johns Hopkins University recommends supplementing with low-fat or non-fat milk because milk protein has the ability to promote uric acid excretion.

Water helps to eliminate uric acid effectively, drinking enough water (about 2-3 liters per day) reduces the risk of gout by up to 40%. In addition, coffee and green tea, when consumed in moderation, can reduce uric acid levels thanks to antioxidant compounds.

One eating habit that many people have is consuming too many sugary drinks or processed foods. This is extremely dangerous, because these food groups contain a lot of fructose, which increases uric acid production. Research from BMJ Open shows that reducing fructose consumption is an important step in controlling uric acid levels.
