1. How to relieve high uric acid?The high uric acid is closely related with the daily improper diet. Except receiving a medical treatment, the patient should keep a good dietary habit and then trying to relieve high uric acid. The followings are some references of diet for high uric acid:
⑴ The first tip to relieve high uric acid is to avoid to have too much high-purine food, such as peanut, beef, pork, seafood, animals’ viscera, sardine, tuna, beans, fermented food, fish, shrimp, fresh meat, pea, spinach, wines and so on. Especially the fricassee and marinated meat are forbidden to eat.
⑵ Drink more water is another tip to relieve high uric acid. The patient should keep 1500~3000 ml water intake per day so as to help uric acid excretion. Meanwhile the patient should have less fat, which can decrease the uric acid excretion.
⑶ In daily dietary structure, carbohydrate should be dominant, because it prompts the uric acid excretion and then relieve high uric acid. White rice, steamed bun, powerful powder, corns, noodles are selectable.
⑷ To control the daily protein intake is important for the diet for high uric acid. The protein intake should be up to the patient’s weight, and the basic rate is 1 kg weight vs 1 g protein. The patient with gout should eat less animals’ viscera (such as heart, liver, intestines, kidney, brain and meat soup) and seafood (such as sardine, shrimp and shell). Milk and eggs have lots of protein and are good choices.
⑸ Prohibition against alcoholic drinks. The alcohol can accumulate the lactic acid in the body; inhibit the uric acid excretion which probably leads to gout. The beer plus seafood diet is absolutely forbidden, because the alcohol in the beer can not only inhibit the uric acid excretion and also increase the uric acid by materials produced in the oxidation process. Because the seafood has purine and protein, once eating too much, the human body would stay a slightly acid environment, which prompts forming the uric acid crystal.
