Uric acid & diet: The best diet to prevent gout is a healthy diet. Reduce beer and alcohol, shellfish and organ meats such as liver. Emphasize protein from dairy products instead of meat. Avoid sugary drinks with fructose and meats high in fat as they increase risk of gout. Instead increase intake of vegetables. If you continue to have symptoms with changes in diet, follow up with your physician.
