We all know that gout patients must pay attention to their diet. Some meats cannot be eaten in excess, which can easily lead to an increase in uric acid levels, which is not conducive to the relief of gout and will make treatment more difficult. Some patients asked, can duck meat be eaten with gout? So let’s find out together, can gout patients eat duck meat?

The purine content of duck meat is 240 kcal/100 grams, which is a medium-purine food. Gout patients can eat it appropriately. Duck meat can diuretic and reduce swelling, and the cholesterol content in duck meat is relatively low. The melting point of fatty acids is low and it is easy to digest. In addition, duck meat is rich in niacin, which has a protective effect on patients with heart disease such as myocardial infarction. Therefore, gout patients and patients with gout and coronary heart disease can eat some duck meat.

The biggest feature of duck meat is that it can clear away heat and remove internal heat, so drinking duck soup in summer is the most pleasant, as it can not only supplement nutrition, but also remove heat. However, duck meat is cold in nature, so people who are not interested in eating due to body deficiency or cold, and patients with cold stomach pain, loose diarrhea, low back pain, cold dysmenorrhea, obesity, arteriosclerosis, and chronic enteritis should eat less.

Generally speaking, if patients with gout eat duck meat, they should choose duck meat with old, white meat and black bones. Patients with gout and obesity can eat some wood duck and lean duck for a satisfying meal.

It can be seen that gout patients can actually eat duck meat, but it is not recommended to eat more, because duck is relatively high in fat, which can easily lead to obesity and affect the condition of gout patients.
