Gout: what causes it and how you can keep it under control
Gout is a disease caused by increased levels of uric acid in the blood. Gout attacks occur when uric acid forms crystals that deposit in the joints. These crystals cause severe inflammation, intense pain (the patient cannot even tolerate skin touch), redness, and warmth of the affected joint.
Meat or sugar? Surprise...
People mostly associate gout with high meat consumption. But few know that sugar, through its fructose content, is the main factor that increases uric acid and the risk of gout.
Normal, moderate meat consumption is not a problem for most people.
How does uric acid increase?
There are two mechanisms:
From purines
Purines are substances found in meat, especially in organs (liver, kidneys, heart, brain). These are converted into uric acid.
From fructose
Fructose is converted into ATP, and ATP degrades into uric acid.
Besides that, fructose:
- increases uric acid production in the liver,
- reduces the elimination of uric acid through the kidneys,
- causes insulin resistance, which further amplifies the increase of uric acid.
What to avoid first of all
To prevent gout and the increase of uric acid:
- Limit sugar and especially sweetened drinks(sugary drinks, high fructose corn syrup, bottled juices, even fresh juices in excess)
- Reduce alcohol, especially beer(stimulates the accumulation of uric acid)
What helps you
- Stay well hydrated: at least 2 liters/day
- Consume meat in moderation
- Follow the treatment prescribed by your doctor
- Supports the elimination of uric acid through the kidneys
Here comes the interesting part: it seems that zeolite can help eliminate uric acid through urine. I have received numerous messages from people with gout who told me that since they started taking zeolite, they have not had attacks, even for periods of 1–2 years.
Additionally, acidic urine promotes the formation of stones from uric acid salts. Zeolite can also help by alkalizing the urine, preventing the formation of these stones.
Conclusion
- Avoid sugar and sweetened soft drinks
- Reduce alcohol, especially beer
- Consume meat in moderation
- Follow the medical treatment
- Take zeolite spectrum
- Stay well hydrated
Take care of your body and it will take care of you.
