10 Foods That Cause Gout
Food #2: Herring
As mentioned above, some seafood is harmful when it comes to gout. Another seafood that should be avoided is herring due to its high purine content.
Some seafoods that are safer for consumption include shrimp, lobster, eel, and crab. In addition, it is also important to work with your doctor to evaluate other causes of gout. Many individuals with uncontrolled diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and heart disease tend to suffer from gout. Thus, work on these conditions as well to help ease the progression of gout as well as symptoms of gout.
