Avoid Rancid Oils

Nuts and seeds have a high percentage of poly and mono-unsaturated oils, which makes them very healthy to eat, but more prone to spoiling or “going rancid”.  Rancid oils and fats are toxic to the body, and should be avoided.

Tips for buying and storing nuts and seeds:

  • Buy them whole, not chopped or sliced.
  • Buy them raw, not roasted or heated in any way. (You can toast them right before you eat them).
  • Buy them from stores with a high volume business, so they will not have been sitting on the shelf too long.
  • If possible, buy them from grocers that store them in refrigerators or freezers.
  • When you bring them home, store them in airtight containers inside the refrigerator or freezer.

Stop Gout Pain Now

 + Bottom Line:  Nuts and seeds can be enjoyed in moderation on your gout diet, but should always be consumed fresh and not rancid.
