What do people with high uric acid eat?
Patients with high uric acid should eat more vegetables, because most vegetables are diuretic, especially celery, which contains carotene, vitamin B 1, vitamin B2, vitamin C, potassium, sodium, magnesium and dietary fiber. Among them, potassium can effectively prevent uric acid accumulation. Potassium has a strong diuretic effect, so that uric acid is excreted with urine. Therefore, celery can be regarded as a natural diuretic. The potassium and dietary fiber contained in celery have the effect of lowering blood pressure, and it is also effective for hypertension, one of the complications of gout. Other vegetables suitable for eating mainly include: Chinese cabbage, cabbage, lettuce (lettuce), amaranth, snow red, chrysanthemum, mustard leaf, water urn, leek, leek, tomato, eggplant, melon (cucumber, wax gourd, loofah, pumpkin, bitter gourd, etc.), radish (radish)

Causes of high uric acid
The metabolism of purine substances in the body is disordered, which leads to the increase of uric acid synthesis.
1, too much purine intake, high uric acid content is directly proportional to the purine content in food. If too much purine food is consumed in daily life, the uric acid production in the body will increase, which will break the balance of uric acid content and cause hyperuricemia.
2. Increased purine metabolism: such as chronic hemolytic anemia, rhabdomyolysis, polycythemia, myeloproliferative diseases and high uric acid during chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
The metabolic disorder of purine substances in the body leads to the decrease of uric acid excretion, and 90% of patients with persistent high uric acid have abnormal renal function in dealing with uric acid. The decrease of uric acid secretion may be related to the decrease of glomerular filtration rate, renal tubular secretion or renal tubular reabsorption.
From the above, it can be seen that the cause of high uric acid is closely related to the diet in daily life, so patients with high uric acid should control their own diet in life, and then control the phenomenon of high uric acid in the body.
What can't people with high uric acid eat?
After knowing the harm of high uric acid, what we should mainly do is prevention and control. What can people with high uric acid not eat?
1 What people with high uric acid can't eat: the first kind of aquatic products.
Lobster, crab, oyster and other seafood, shellfish, aquatic products, green algae and so on can not be eaten. These foods are rich in polysaccharide and high in protein, which will increase the burden of kidney decomposition and increase our uric acid, so we should eat less. Some of these foods are rich in astaxanthin, the strongest antioxidant in nature, which can reduce the source of uric acid by 80%. How to "get rid of its dross and get its essence"? The best way is for gout patients to supplement astaxanthin with pure products, and it is not appropriate to supplement astaxanthin by eating the above foods. Seafood is a good thing, and it tastes delicious, but people with high uric acid had better not eat it.
2. What people with high uric acid can't eat: the second kind of animal liver.
Animal viscera: pancreas, liver, kidney, bone marrow, large intestine (high in purine), etc. Vegetables: spinach, radishes, etc. Spinach and other plants are rich in oxalic acid, which easily leads to the double growth of hyperoxaluria, which makes uric acid increase sharply and increases the burden on the kidneys. Animal viscera is rich in high protein, but it is not suitable for people with high uric acid, so as not to aggravate the disease.
3. What people with high uric acid can't eat: the third kind of protein.
What can't people with high uric acid eat? People with high uric acid should not eat protein. If it is lean meat, chicken and duck meat, etc., it should be thoroughly cooked and eaten in soup, avoiding stew or braised pork. Eat less fat, which can reduce uric acid excretion. In patients with gout complicated with hyperlipidemia, the fat intake should be controlled within 20 to 25 of the total calories. Soy products, dairy products and eggs are nutritious foods, but they are not suitable for people with high uric acid.
4. What people with high uric acid can't eat: the fourth kind of acidic food.
Avoid eating acidic foods, such as coffee, fried foods and high-fat foods. The imbalance of acid and alkali will affect the body function and increase the burden of liver and kidney.
