Purine, or purines are found in every plant and animal on earth…including us. Foods high in purines are greatly emphasized as the culprit for the cause of gout and gout attacks. Let’s change your mindset about that; while a diet high in purines is not the direction we’re headed, living with some sort of purine fear isn’t either. As far as purine definition goes, there are some good things to know.

 

“Purina”?

PurinesThe purine content of many meats, especially organ meats, as well as some fishes and seafood, various vegetables and some grains, is particularly high – maybe that’s how they came up with the name “Purina” for the dog food. Should us “gout-ers” avoid them? Probably…at least for a while.

Purine definition involves a healthy dose of technical chemistry, a good piece of information to know about in relationship to gout, is that the uric acid is produce by the liver in the process of metabolizing purine rich substances. Being careful about what meats you eat and how often is important but not the only thing.

Hello there Bert .

Really appreciate everything you are doing in helping gout sufferers understand and treat there condition. Like your self I to have gone through the mill with really painful gout attacks and watching gouty tophi lumps sprout up all over the place, leading to the surgical removal of large gouty tophi lumps from my elbows. Despite becoming a vegetarian ten years ago – meaning my protein and purine intake is pretty low, I still suffer from (though not as severe ) gout attacks. The tophi lumps are returning in my elbows and I now cannot clench my fist completely on my left hand which is worrying. I stopped taking allopathic medicine i.e. allopurinol and diclofenac a few years ago, opting for more natural treatments like apple cider vinegar, cherry juice, baking soda, etc . These I find are useful in treating the symptoms and halting the onset of a full gout attack. You have stated, it is important to try to discover the causative factor, and in my efforts to do this, I have come to the conclusions that I may have a fungal problem, and also that my kidneys are not filtering – which causing my lymphatic system to back up, leading to high acidosis. I am to begin a program of herbs for the elimination of fungal and parasites and a raw food juice fast to try and deal with the acidosis . I will let you know the results .

Once again your website and YouTube sites are a real companion for me while I am on this path to beating this condition.

Keep up the great work .

Fear of Purines

Personally I found there to be little or no value in getting all bunched up about how much purine concentration certain foods have, as much as how often I eat foods that have a higher purine content. Here’s an example:

  • If I have steak & lobster for dinner one night, I make sure that I don’t have shrimp or a lot of beans the next day.

Learning that whatever your eating should be more live foods; fruits and vegetables than anything, else is a good rule of thumb to live with. Fruits and vegetables are low, or lowest on the scale of purine content…not to mention generally more alkalizing and full of antioxidants.

What is more important to realize about purine rich foods is that, while they do cause the body to create more uric acid, they are not the only thing to get focused on to remove gout from your life. Your body is having a hard time dealing with and eliminating an over-abundance of acidity in general. Purine-rich foods have just added to the load and sometimes assist in the boil over. (gout attack)

When seeking purine definition, it always brings concern about meats and shellfish. What’s important to note is that there is an incredible purine content in many different kinds of beans. Even soy products can have enough that you should pay attention to the frequency you eat tofu, or even beans and rice. Do not try to replace meat protein with protein from beans…take it from me.

Stop Gout Pain Now

I’ve found more success with myself and the people I work with in focusing on the acidic accumulation of the body; both minimizing the addition of it and the elimination of what has already accumulated.

   ☆ Remember!  Limiting purines is only a portion of the gout prevention program.
