For gout patients, it is recommended to avoid drinking ribs soup, because purine is a hydrophilic substance, which is easily soluble in water, and ribs soup will contain a lot of purine. At the same time, eating a lot of fat will hinder the metabolism of uric acid in human body, which will lead to a sharp increase in uric acid content in patients and induce an acute attack of gout. However, patients with gout can eat some ribs properly, but not too much, otherwise it may lead to an increase in uric acid and induce or aggravate gout.
