There
are many gout arthritis protocols. For natural gout
control, the Arthritis Strategy Pack is powerful and
effective. Arthritin aids in reducing pain and
inflammation and provides the most noticeable and
immediate results. However, Buffer pH is the key to the
combination by balancing the internal environment to
prevent future gout attacks. Uric acid naturally
dissolves and flushes through the system when your body
maintains a proper pH balance. When your pH levels
become acidic, too little uric acid is excreted.
Gout
arthritis is caused by an excess of uric acid in the blood, which
forms microscopic crystals in the joint. These crystals
lead to inflammation, called acute gout. As part of gout
treatment, you will want to examine your diet and avoid
or restrict food that is high in purine, which are foods
that when broken down produce a lot of uric acid. On a
strict gout arthritis food diet, you will be advised to avoid
shellfish, red meat, liver, peas, lentils and beans.
According to the American Medical Association, people
following a gout arthritis diet need no more than 30 percent
of their calories from fat. Also, it recommends no more
than 10 percent of the fat in their gout food diet come
from animal fats. Forty percent of the gout arthritis diet is
recommended to be fiber-rich whole grains, fruits and
vegetables or complex carbohydrates. The final component
of one’s gout treatment diet is made up of protein. They
recommend just 15 percent come from soy, poultry and
other lean meats that are acceptable on the
gouty
arthritis
treatment diet.
In
fact, studies have shown following the gout diet
and limiting caloric intake to 1,600 calories a day,
depending on your weight and frame, can help.
In
one study conducted in 2001, there was a 67 percent
reduction in gout attacks when patients consumed a
40/30/30 diet with 40 percent being complex
carbohydrates, 30 percent fat and 30 percent protein.
Studies indicated unsaturated fat had a positive effect
on cholesterol levels as well as the levels of uric
acid, so it is better to avoid saturated fats.
Another study, published in the New England Journal of
Medicine March 11, 2004, showed how important it is to
include low-fat dairy products in your gout treatment
diet. Low-fat dairy reduced the risk of gout by 50
percent, although scientists are still unsure as to why
it helps to include dairy in your gout treatment diet.
In
addition to consuming more dairy and less protein, there
are several steps you can take to reduce gout arthritis attacks;
-
Stay on the gout diet while drinking plenty of
fluids and avoiding alcohol. You should stay hydrated
because fluids can remove excess uric acid from your
system.
-
Staying on the gout diet will help you lose
weight, which is important because obese people have
added stress on their joints.
-
Even though it’s important to lose weight, be
sensible. Rapid fad diets, particularly high protein
diets, can sabotage your efforts to stay on the more
effective gout treatment diet.
It’s frustrating to go on a new diet because it means
altering recipes and changing habits, but you don’t have
to stop going to your favorite restaurants.
Some of the foods you may continue to enjoy on your gout
food diet include avocados, so take an extra dollop of
guacamole on your celery stick. Celery along with black
cherries was once used as a folk remedy for people with
gout.
You may also feel free to order a salmon or tuna dish.
Many Italian restaurants cook with olive oil, which is a
good source of unsaturated fat for your gout treatment
diet. Other good sources of fat include flaxseed and
nuts.
In
addition, make sure to include foods in your gout
arthritis treatment diet that are high in bromelain, a pineapple
enzyme, and vitamin C, which is a vital vitamin to
cleanse uric acid from the body. Also, when it comes to
grocery shopping for your gout diet, search for all
kinds of fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
