Question 3

what kind of foods should you not eat if you have a gout?

Accepted Answer

Potentially several: Many rheumatologists used to think that diet can be a significant contributor to gout flares, but i think many (including me) are changing our minds. Working through the math, the purine load from food is not that much. Thus, diet change may not help that much.
