Five good ways to lower uric acid. Before you stop taking your medicine, one of our patients was found to have over 800 uric acid levels. He was shocked and hurriedly came to see me in the outpatient clinic. When I saw that his gout had progressed to gouty nephropathy, I had to hurry up and help him treat it. I also quickly gave him some of our uric acid-lowering drugs. The uric acid level has indeed come down, but he feels that he is not yet forty years old. I think I will be taking medicine for a long time from now on. In fact, in his situation, there are five methods that can help him control uric acid, so that he can persist and gradually reduce the medication in the later stage.

Today I will tell you about these five methods in detail. The first method is to increase our drinking water. About 70% of the uric acid in our body passes through our kidneys and is excreted together with the urine. If you drink more water, our urinary output will increase and more uric acid will be excreted. Generally, we recommend that gout patients drink at least two thousand milliliters of boiled water every day. The second one. Keep exercising. Exercise can improve our blood circulation and accelerate our metabolism. When metabolism is accelerated, the blood becomes smoother, and our uric acid can be excreted from our bodies more smoothly. As long as you can persist for about half an hour to an hour every day, your uric acid levels will slowly decrease. Remember, during our acute attack of gout, we should not do any strenuous exercise. The third way is to control your weight. Obesity will cause our metabolism and endocrine disorders, induce our hypertension, hyperemia, hyperlipidemia and other diseases, and more easily hinder our uric acid excretion. During clinical treatment, it has been found that normal patients tend to reduce uric acid more easily and have better control of gout. Everyone must keep their mouths shut, open their legs and eat until you are 70% or 80% full. The fourth method is to appropriately increase our vitamin C, which can help us reduce the production of uric acid, help us dissolve urate crystals, and promote our uric acid excretion. Therefore, increasing the proportion of fruits and vegetables in the diet is a good way to supplement vitamins without requiring you to take special supplements. The fifth method is to insist on regulating metabolism. Twenty percent of the uric acid in our body comes from food, and 80% of the uric acid comes from living dust in our body. When your metabolism is disordered, even if you don't eat anything, it will be difficult to lower your uric acid. As long as you persist in doing the above five methods, combined with some of the medicines given by our doctors, they can help you control the uric acid level here. When the uric acid becomes stable in the later period, gout attacks can be reduced. Slowly we aim to reduce or stop taking medication, you might as well give it a try.
