Hello, everyone, I'm Mian Yan Ma Yu, and I have different wonderful information to share with you every day.
Today, let's discuss whether gout patients can drink tea. What kind of tea can you drink to reduce uric acid?
let's talk about it in detail.
The first uric acid is the metabolite of nucleic acid (DNA) in the nucleus. In vivo, 2% of uric acid comes from food and 8% from the metabolism of its own cells. Most uric acid in the body is excreted through the kidneys.
hyperuricemia can be caused by excessive uric acid production or uric acid excretion disorder. Long-term high uric acid, uric acid deposition in joints to form aseptic inflammation of joints is gouty arthritis, which is what we often call gout. In addition, uric acid deposits under the skin to form tophi; Deposited in renal pelvis and ureter to form uric acid kidney calculi; Deposited in the kidney to form hyperuricemic nephropathy.
The second high uric acid is the root cause of gout attack. Reducing blood uric acid and controlling uric acid to reach the standard for a long time are the most effective measures to avoid gout attack and reduce gout stone, uric acid kidney calculi and hyperuricemic nephropathy.
Diet control can reduce uric acid production, which has the function of reducing uric acid; Taking drugs that inhibit uric acid production, such as allopurinol, febuxostat, or phenylbromarone, a drug that promotes uric acid excretion, also has the effect of reducing uric acid. In addition, drinking plenty of water is also of great benefit to gout patients.
Third, drinking plenty of water can dilute the concentration of uric acid in blood and reduce the deposition of uric acid in tissues; Excessive urination caused by drinking a lot of water can promote uric acid excretion. In addition, urine dilution can also reduce the concentration of uric acid and reduce the formation of uric acid kidney calculi.
generally speaking, a person's daily water loss (sweating, water exhaled from respiratory tract) is about 5~8ml, and if he sweats a lot, the water loss will be more. Therefore, in order to maintain a daily urine output of 2~3ml, the daily water intake should reach 25~38ml.
Fourth, take drinking water as a habit. Never wait until you are thirsty! Therefore, gout patients can drink tea, and it is no problem to drink more. As for what kind of tea to drink? The answer is, it doesn't matter what kind of tea you drink. Anyway, it's water, not tea. It is economical and affordable to drink boiled water!
