Symptoms of Gout in Foot
The reason you found me is because of the way this is written – gout in the foot symptoms – it’s way the internet works ya know. But the good news is that we can now do something about your situation and get you some gout pain relief.
One of the worst things to do when you start to feel a gout attack coming on is to wait. Don’t do that! Even if you just think it “might” be a gout attack, take action!
Whether it’s gout symptoms foot, hand, ankle, wrist…whatever – it all comes down to one thing: Acidosis. Western medicine wants to put a straight-jacket on this thing called gout, and say that it is because your uric acid is too high – BUT – the rest of your inner body terrain is in a state of over-abundant acidity as well.

Hello.
My last attack was xmas, when I had gout for 3 months on and off. I was drinking celery, lemon, ginger and cucumber juice everyday. I missed 4 days worth and my I had this gout attack. I was into the second week when I found your website. After a days work I was coming home and foot would swell up to the point that I couldn’t walk. I have done the baking powder and vinegar for 2 days and my gout is 95% gone. I am now a happy bunny. Can’t thank you enough for the information. ~ Mantis Fists
