How to cure gout attacks without prescription drugs

Gout is a very painful inflammatory condition of the joints, caused by the accumulation of crystallized uric acid around the affected joint. The most commonly affected joint is the big toe; however, gout can affect the ankle, instep, heel, knee, spine, elbow, wrist, and finger. In severe cases, gout can deform the affected joint.

People prone to gout tend to have high levels of uric acid in their blood. High uric acid levels may be due to the kidneys not removing uric acid from the blood properly.

Uric acid level

You say, “Okay, my kidneys are not working properly. So what can I do to cure my gout?” The answer is that you can do a lot.

First of all, certain foods and drinks increase the body’s uric acid level, while certain foods and drinks do not. So if you avoid foods and drinks that increase your uric acid level and partake of foods and drinks that don’t, you will never have a gout attack, thereby curing your gout condition!

What are the foods and drinks that increase the uric acid level in the body and cause a gout attack? Meat and seafood promote gout attacks. Do you like beef, pork, lamb, liver, bacon, fish, lobster, mussels, scallops, or shrimp? Sorry, you have to pass these on. To a lesser degree, chicken, turkey, and duck promote gout attacks. You like beer? Well, not anymore, because beer promotes gout attacks.

High protein foods

Avoiding meat and seafood puts you in a quandary. Avoid these foods to avoid gout attacks, but your body cannot function properly without protein – meats and seafood are common sources of protein! What is your job?

Fortunately, there are high-protein foods that do not cause gout attacks. They are categorically listed below.

Eggs and Dairy Products: Milk, cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt, and eggs are rich in protein.

Grains and cereals: Those rich in protein are buckwheat, amaranth grain (usually sold in health food stores) and quinoa.

Nuts and Seeds: Peanuts, almonds, cashews, walnuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and flax seeds are rich in protein.

Beans that include soybeans: Beans, soybeans, and split peas are rich in protein.

Red wine

So all you have to do is substitute these high protein foods for the meats and seafood you usually eat. “But what about beer? Is there a substitute for that? I need to have a beer to relax after work,” he says. Once again, you are in luck.

Since red wine does not raise the body’s uric acid level, it does not cause gout attacks. In fact, red wine can even lower uric acid levels! And certainly red wine is as effective as beer in helping you relax.

Vitamin C in high doses

Not only can red wine lower uric acid levels, but vitamin C can do the same as well. High-dose vitamin C lowers uric acid levels in most gout sufferers. However, for some people with gout, high doses of vitamin C make their condition worse.

A dose of 500 mg per day significantly reduces uric acid levels in most gout sufferers. But before starting a vitamin C regimen, you must get your doctor’s approval; because vitamin C in high doses could remove uric acid from your body too quickly, causing kidney stones.

Is protein substitution practical?

Some of you may be saying right now, “Okay, this all makes sense, but it’s not practical. This protein substitution lacks variety; there’s no way I can keep up with it.” Lack of variety? Let’s see. I will try to brainstorm a variety of safe protein foods for gout.

The following foods contain cheese and can be served without meat or seafood: Pizza, Cheese Ravioli, Baked Ziti, Mozzarella Sticks, Eggplant Parmesan, Cheese Omelet, Lasagna, Egg & Cheese Muffin Sandwich, Mac & Cheese, Potato Oven with Cheddar Cheese Sauce, Italian Stuffed Shells, Cheese Manicotti in Marinara Sauce, Salad with Blue Cheese Dressing, Cheesecake, Broccoli Cheese Soup, Parmesan Asparagus, Smoked Mozzarella Fonduta, Fettuccine Alfredo, Cheesy Penne goat and ricotta gnocchi.

Trying to be brief, I just brainstormed gout safe protein rich foods containing cheese, buckwheat, peanuts, and tofu. If you were to include gout safe protein rich foods containing milk, cottage cheese, yogurt, eggs, amaranth grain, quinoa, almonds, cashews, walnuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, soy milk, beans, soybeans, and peas, he would end up writing a novel. Although I only focused on foods that contain cheese, buckwheat, peanuts, and tofu, you can see that there is a lot of variety.

Warnings, interactions, and side effects

Gout attacks can be cured by following the dietary changes suggested here. However, keep in mind that it is easier to prevent gout attacks than to intervene in the middle of gout attacks. Therefore, it is better to use the suggested dietary changes proactively rather than reactively.

Some foods suggested here can dangerously interact with some prescription drugs or medical conditions. For example, eating cheese while taking monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) can kill you. Also, drinking red wine while you have liver cirrhosis can make your condition worse. Therefore, to be safe, you should get approval from your doctor and pharmacist before following the suggested dietary changes.

People prone to gout may have a side effect from aspirin. Although normal people can take aspirin without side effects, people prone to gout can have the side effect of a gout attack. So if you are prone to gout and have a headache, you are better off taking Motrin (ibuprofen) instead of Bayer (aspirin).

Resume

Although prescription medications such as allopurinol prevent gout attacks, some people prefer a more natural prevention. This article describes a gout prevention plan, consisting of protein substitution, alcohol substitution, and high-dose vitamin C supplementation. This article proposes that dietary changes alone can prevent gout attacks.
