Question by M V: What are good foods to eat when you have the gout, and what are the bad?

Best answer:

Answer by Marvinator
Stay away from foods high in purines.

Foods very high in purines include:

hearts
herring
mussels
yeast
smelt
sardines
sweetbreads

Foods moderately high in purines include:

anchovies
grouse
mutton
veal
bacon
liver
salmon
turkey
kidneys
partridge
trout
goose
haddock
pheasant
scallops

I’ve been able to control my gout WITHOUT medications. I use 2 standard Capsules of Ground Celery Seed per day (with extras on days when I know I”ve eaten high sugar, or high protein – foods rich in purines.) You can also work with NONSweatened Cherry Juice to alleviate the symptoms of gout.
