How can high uric acid come down?

Let's first understand the factors that affect uric acid, including age, sex, heredity, purine metabolism, and external factors such as diet, drinking, environment, weight and temperature.

The internal factors are beyond our control, so if we want to reduce uric acid, we need to adjust from the external factors, that is, we should limit the following diets:

1. Seafood

The seafood to be avoided mainly refers to seafood with crustaceans, such as lobster, scallop and oyster.

However, marine fish rich in fat, such as mackerel and sardines, are not taboo for patients with high uric acid with high risk factors of cardiovascular disease, and can still be eaten in moderation.

2.? Red meat and animal offal

Red meat and animal offal rich in purine must be strictly restricted.

when acute gout attacks, you should avoid eating it. For patients with gout or hyperuricemia in stable condition, the intake of animal food should not exceed 5g/day, which is about the size of an egg.

3.? Alcohol < P > Alcohol can significantly increase gout attack and uric acid level.

Of course, different kinds of wine have different relationships with the onset of diseases, and beer and highly distilled liquor (highly distilled liquor, whisky, etc.) have more obvious hazards and should be avoided as far as possible; Low-alcohol wine has little effect on uric acid level, but it still needs to be strictly limited.

4.? Sweets/too sweet fruits

It is easy to be overlooked, but studies have confirmed that foods, drinks, sweets and even natural fruit juices with sweet taste will increase the blood uric acid level. Therefore, these foods should also be controlled.

after talking about what should be strictly restricted, let's talk about those foods that can be eaten more:

1. Dairy products

Dairy products such as milk, yogurt and cheese are important sources of high-quality protein, and little uric acid is produced by metabolism. At the same time, whey protein and casein contained in dairy products can promote the decline of uric acid level, which is an important nutritional substitute for patients to limit animal food.

However, many patients with high uric acid/gout often suffer from chronic metabolic diseases such as overweight, obesity and metabolic syndrome, so it is recommended to choose skim or low-fat dairy products.

2.? Eggs

Eggs are an important supplement to high-quality protein, and at the same time, they produce little purine, so you can eat more.

But egg yolk contains considerable fat, so don't eat too much. You can eat a little extra egg white on the basis of eating an egg every day.

3.? Fresh vegetables

Eating a lot of vegetables is beneficial to control uric acid level. Studies have found that even so-called high-purine vegetables (such as spinach, mushrooms, broccoli, etc.) will not increase the uric acid level of human body.

Therefore, it is not necessary to worry about the purine content in different vegetables, and it is most important to ensure the total intake of vegetables!

4.? Coffee

Caffeine and chlorogenic acid in coffee are strong antioxidants, which can reduce uric acid level. Therefore, drinking more coffee can promote the decrease of uric acid level.

5.? Water

It is very important to drink plenty of water and urinate frequently.

Finally, keep your legs open while keeping your mouth shut. It is also important to exercise more to control your weight!
