Xiao Gao, male, 36 years old, is not old but has suffered from gout for 3 years, diabetes for 1 year, and is also complicated by hyperlipidemia. He is a real three-high foodie.

In the past few years since I got sick, my family has been strictly controlling my diet. In the summer, when faced with beer, seafood, skewers, hot pot... I can only watch but not eat, which is very annoying.

Gout, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia are all chronic diseases. In addition to long-term medication, what is more important is lifestyle intervention, especially a reasonable diet.

People with high blood lipids should strictly control their intake of high-fat foods, especially saturated fatty acids, such as animal skins, internal organs, and oils.

Reduce high cholesterol intake. Fish without scales such as squid and eels have relatively high cholesterol content, as well as common seafood such as crabs and scallops.

In addition to eating foods with low purine content, gout patients should also keep in mind the "three more, three less, and one taboo" in their diet:

1. Drink more water and less soup< /p>

People with high blood uric acid and gout patients should drink more boiled water and less broth, fish soup, chicken soup, hot pot soup, etc.

2. Eat more alkaline foods and less acidic foods

Alkaline foods: vegetables and fruits; seaweed; nuts; sprouted cereals and beans.

Acidic foods: starches; animal foods; sweets; refined processed foods, such as white bread, etc.; fried foods or butter; beans, such as peanuts, etc.

3. Eat more fruits and vegetables and less red meat

Eating more vegetables will help reduce purine intake, increase vitamin C, and increase fiber. Studies have found that red meat increases the risk of gout, so white meat such as chicken, duck, and fish is generally considered more suitable for people with arthritis.

4. Avoid alcohol

Alcohol will accelerate the synthesis of uric acid. In addition, the lactic acid produced by the metabolism of ethanol will inhibit the excretion of uric acid by the kidneys, thereby increasing blood uric acid and inducing gout.

5. Drink less sweet drinks

Compared to beer, beverages have been overlooked. Studies have shown that sugary soft drinks can significantly increase blood uric acid levels and are more effective than spirits. More obvious, almost like beer.

-Food Purine Level Table-

Although there are many taboos for people with diabetes, there are also tips on daily diet.

1. Control the intake of sweets

2. Tips on matching three meals a day

Eat whole grains: you can choose whole wheat foods, which are rich in trace amounts. Elements, long-term consumption can lower blood sugar and blood lipids.

High-fiber foods: corn, celery, leeks, beans, pumpkin, bamboo shoots, etc. promote the body's sugar metabolism and prevent blood sugar from being absorbed too quickly. Foods rich in high fiber can lower the blood sugar of diabetics and increase the feeling of fullness.

Vegetables with low sugar content: leeks, zucchini, winter melon, pumpkin, eggplant, bitter melon, onion, mushrooms, etc.

Foods rich in calcium: dried shrimps, kelp, ribs, etc. The lack of calcium will aggravate the condition of diabetics.

Foods rich in selenium: mushrooms, fish, etc. It can regulate sugar metabolism and improve diabetes symptoms. Because the physiological activities of selenium and insulin are the same.

Foods rich in vitamins: tomatoes, cabbage, etc. Vitamin supplementation is of great significance in preventing and treating neurological, vascular and eye complications of diabetes.

3. Eat fruit wisely

People with diabetes can make flexible choices based on their own circumstances, and the daily intake should not exceed 200 g.

Grapefruit, dragon fruit, and cherries contain less sugar and can be eaten first.

Strawberries, peaches, kiwis, etc. have a low glycemic index and can also be eaten.

Tomatoes and cucumbers have very low sugar content and can be eaten in moderation instead of fruits.

4. Reduce cholesterol

Eat less foods high in fat, eat less animal offal, etc.

Therefore, when gout is combined with the three highs, it does not mean that you cannot eat anything. It also allows us to choose healthier foods when eating, with balanced nutrition, so that the body can have energy to fight the disease.
