After entering the summer, a large number of crayfish are on the market, which is a very common aquatic product, rich in nutrients such as protein and astaxanthin. And crayfish meat is particularly delicious, so many people like to eat some crayfish. When eating crayfish, many people like to drink some beer, but many people think that eating crayfish and drinking beer will lead to gout. Is it true?/You don't say.

First of all, healthy people

For healthy people, eating crayfish occasionally and drinking beer together will not directly induce gout. Gout is an inflammatory joint disease caused by the continuous increase of uric acid value in the body and the formation of some uric acid crystals in the joints. There are two reasons for the high uric acid value in the body. One is that there is a problem in metabolism in the body, which makes part of uric acid in the body unable to be excreted quickly, resulting in high uric acid value in the body.

Crayfish is a high purine food, and beer is a high purine diet. After eating crayfish and drinking beer, the uric acid value in the body will rise in a short time. But for healthy people, these uric acids will be excreted quickly without causing hyperuricemia or gout. However, if you take this method in large quantities for a long time, the uric acid value in the body will be unbalanced, which will lead to high uric acid and gout.

Second, people in uric acid is too high.

For people in uric acid is too high, we must pay attention to our diet in our daily life. All foods rich in purine must be reduced or banned, such as all kinds of meat and seafood. Crayfish is a kind of high purine food. If uric acid is too high patients eat a lot of crayfish, it will lead to a rapid increase in uric acid in the body, so they are prone to gout.

Third, gout patients

Gout patients should not eat crayfish, let alone drink beer during the onset. If gout patients are in a stable period or recovery period, there will be no serious discomfort. However, patients are still not allowed to eat crayfish at this time, let alone drink beer. Otherwise, it will not only affect the treatment of the disease, but also lead to the continuous increase of uric acid value, thus aggravating gout symptoms.

In short, because crayfish and beer contain very high purine substances, if they are ingested in large quantities, the uric acid level in the body will be unbalanced. Not only will hyperuricemia be induced, but the probability of gout will be particularly high. Therefore, no matter what kind of people, they should reduce their intake of these foods. Especially in uric acid is too high and gout patients, try not to eat crayfish with beer, otherwise it will induce gout, which is very harmful to the health.
