Five methods to reduce uric acid:
1. Exercise more: Patients with high uric acid should pay attention to exercise more, instead of doing strenuous exercise, and can choose swimming and aerobic exercise. Exercise can promote blood circulation in the body and is beneficial to the excretion of uric acid.
2. Drink plenty of water: Patients with high uric acid should drink plenty of water at ordinary times to increase urine output and excrete more uric acid in the body. It is recommended to choose soda water, alkaline water or boiled water. Be careful not to drink strong tea and coffee, so as not to affect uric acid control.
3. Eat more vegetarian food and less meat: patients with high uric acid in their diet should pay attention to eating more vegetarian food, such as purple eggplant, Shanghai green and lettuce. There are also beans and soy products to eat less or not; Don't eat a lot of meat at ordinary times, only in moderation. Seafood, animal offal and hot pot should not be eaten, otherwise uric acid will increase.
4. Abstinence: Patients with high uric acid should pay attention to abstinence. No matter beer, foreign wine or red wine, they should be taboo, otherwise the uric acid value will be affected.
5. See a doctor:
(1) Alkalized urine: Under the doctor's advice, patients can take sodium bicarbonate, and it is most appropriate to maintain the urine PH value at 6.2~6.8.
(2) medication: under the doctor's advice, patients can take drugs to increase uric acid excretion, including benbromarone and probenecid.
Causes of high uric acid:
1. Decreased uric acid excretion: including decreased renal tubular secretion and decreased glomerular filtration, so that renal tubular reabsorption increases and salt crystals precipitate.
2. Increased uric acid production: Increased uric acid production is caused by congenital purine metabolism disorder, and uricase gene inactivation, uric acid synthesis or transport are related to gene defects.
