Nutrition for gout: what can and cannot be eaten?

A list of foods and drinks that you can and cannot eat with a disease such as gout.

Which mushrooms can and cannot be consumed with gout

Champignon

Champignons are a tasty and low-calorie product, but, unfortunately, people who suffer from gout should be very limited in their consumption. Champignons increase the number of uric acid crystals in the joints. In addition, fresh banned mushrooms contain other prohibited substances, so they are not recommended for use with gout. Mushroom soups, sauces and broths can trigger an exacerbation of the disease.

Oyster mushrooms

Doctors strongly recommend excluding mushrooms from the diet for gout, especially for artificially grown ones. But the exception is 2 types of mushrooms - oyster mushroom and honey mushroom. The fact is that in mushrooms, as in other protein-containing products, purine is present (chemical compounds that are in the blood of all living organisms are responsible for the formation of DNA). And with gout, it should be excluded, since when the body is not digestible, it turns into uric acid, which destroys tendons and joints. So, in the mentioned species, this element is contained in the least amount. That is why they are allowed to be consumed, but in small portions and stewed.

What cereals can and should not be consumed with gout

Oatmeal

Gout is characterized by a violation of purine metabolism. This dysfunction causes the accumulation of uric acid in the joints, which is accompanied by severe pain and inflammation of the affected organ. To reduce the concentration of harmful uric acid, such patients are prescribed a special diet. One of the key products of the diet of patients with gout is oatmeal. Small portions of nutritious porridge will help to balance the disturbed balance of substances.

Wheat porridge

All cereals contain slow carbohydrates that break down for a long time, so the feeling of fullness persists for a long time. This is a very important factor in gout. Only legumes, which do not include wheat, are prohibited. Therefore, it can and should be included in the diet for patients with gout.

Oatmeal porridge

The patient is allowed to consume no more than 200 mg of purine compounds per day. According to the content of natural bases in its composition, oatmeal occupies an intermediate place between harmful and healthy products, so experts recommend it to be excluded from the patient's diet during an exacerbation of the attack. During a lull, limited cereal intake is allowed. Nevertheless, the benefits of consuming the product exceed the harm done.

Barley porridge

Pearl barley does not contain purines, does not affect salt metabolism, therefore it is allowed for gout. Moreover, barley as a whole improves metabolic processes and relieves inflammation (and this disease is characterized by just severe pain caused by inflammatory diseases in certain joints).

Pea porridge

Despite the useful substances and the saturation of peas with protein, it contains purines, which cause acute attacks of pain and exacerbation of the disease. Therefore, peas in any form from the diet should be excluded.

Barley porridge

The dietary property of barley groats can be used in the preparation of menus for patients with gout. Barley grits affects the endocrine system of the body, normalizing metabolism and facilitating the patient's condition.

The use of barley porridge should be laid for 1 week of dietary nutrition, alternating it after 1-2 days. Meal for the day should be divided into several parts, monitor the selection of products and drinking regimen.At the same time, it is worth removing flour, sweet foods, fatty meat, fish and eggs from the diet, include more vegetables, fruits, increase water intake. A week on a barley diet will relieve the body, remove toxins and toxins, improve the condition of organs - you will see how weight is reduced.

500 g of cooked or steamed groats are divided into 6 equal parts and stretched for 1 day. It’s better not to salt the dish. You need to drink a lot of water, you can decoctions and teas from herbs, dried fruit compotes without sugar. Do not eat sweets. You can dilute the porridge with low-fat kefir or yogurt. To manifest the greater effect of such a diet, you can add laxative dried fruits (100 g), also dividing them into several parts.

Semolina

Porridge, which almost every child loves, is an approved product in the treatment of a disease such as gout. Manka will help restore metabolism and saturate the patient's body with a huge amount of vitamins.

Another unique feature of semolina is the content of a large number of pectins. They help to eliminate harmful substances from the digestive tract, which is very important in the treatment of gout.

Buckwheat porridge

A product that can completely replace animal proteins is buckwheat. It contains proteins that are absorbed by the body more easily than from meat. Therefore, in the patient’s menu, dishes such as soups, cereals and Greek cooked steamed are introduced. Fiber present in buckwheat helps to remove excess uric acid, acting like a sponge: it absorbs the accumulated urea from the gastrointestinal tract and is excreted along with it.

Corn porridge

This disease is largely due not only to the accumulation of uric acid, but also to an increase in the concentration of glutamine. At the same time, corn grits contain a lot of glutamic acid. It is even useful for healthy people, because it improves memory and cognitive functions. But with gout, corn grits will have to be excluded from the diet precisely because of the presence of this component.

Couscous

Gout is a metabolic disorder that causes salt deposits in the joints and kidneys. Therefore, cereals, and especially couscous, are highly recommended by the doctors themselves.

Spelled

Liquid porridge and spelled soup will help in the fight against the disease. In unconventional treatment, porridge and a raw chicken egg are used for diseased joints. The mixture laid on gauze tissue is applied to the diseased joint. Swelling and soreness soon passes.

Brown rice

Rice cereal is one of the allowed and even useful for gout due to its antioxidant and cleansing effect. There are no purines and other compounds that can provoke seizures. Brown rice, in contrast to the polished version, will help to cleanse the body faster, and in addition, contains significantly less calories.

However, therapists strongly discourage their patients from self-medication. Only a qualified doctor is able to build the correct treatment regimen and determine the acceptable dosage of oil and other drugs, based on the characteristics of the disease.

Linseed oil

One reason for the development of gout is a lack of vitamin E, which leads to excessive formation of uric acid, which subsequently crystallizes, destroying the joints. 100 g of flaxseed oil contains 50 mg of this substance. Most useful is unrefined oil prepared by cold pressing. The product must be fresh, as a rancid substance can destroy this vitamin and provoke the appearance of gout. You can store such oil in the refrigerator for no more than a month.

Sesame oil

Gout is not a contraindication to the use of sesame oil. Sesame seeds contain far less purines than other grains. With exacerbation of gout, you should abandon the use of such a product. During remission, sesame can be included in the diet, but there are some limitations. Sesame seeds contain less purines, but in large quantities they can also lead to an increase in uric acid levels in the body.

To relieve pain in the joint, make such a mixture - take 20 ml of grape seed oil, add 4 drops of lavender and eucalyptus essential oil, as well as 5 drops of lemon oil. The resulting product is gently rubbed into a sore joint, wrap it with woolen cloth and provide him with complete peace. Such procedures can be done daily at night.

Olive oil

The complex compounds that make up the cold-pressed product bring tangible benefits to patients with gout.

Sparkling water

The list of methods for treating joint pain includes the appointment of alkaline mineral water. During the period of exacerbation, it can eliminate painful symptoms and calm the joints. Of course, its administration should be combined with drug treatment.

The cause of pain in the joints is the wear of the cartilage due to lack of water and a decrease in the volume of synovial fluid. A carbonated mineral water makes up for the lack of fluid and helps to restore diseased joints.

With gout, you need to drink at least two liters of alkaline mineral water per day.

Cognac

In this disease, the use of alcohol is strictly contraindicated, because it impairs the excretion of uric acid from the body. At the same time, doctors allow single doses of brandy in an amount of not more than 50 ml per full stomach and with the right “snack”, which should not be too dense. Otherwise, this will create an additional burden on the body.

Cognac can also be used as external compresses to help reduce pain. But its internal use should be coordinated with the attending physician, able to understand the course of the disease and establish possible risks.

Coffee

Experts believe that coffee helps to cope with a disease such as gout.But to use in the presence of this pathology should only drink made from ground powder.

In addition, coffee helps speed up the blood circulation and improve vascular tone. As a result, it is possible to eliminate small inflammatory processes.

The drink also contains substances that increase the antioxidant properties of the body. This is an important point in gout.

Thus, moderate use of ground coffee will only benefit the body and help cope with unpleasant symptoms. In this case, a soluble drink should be excluded from the diet.

Kvass can be very useful in this case, as it strengthens the immune system and has an anti-inflammatory effect. Nevertheless, in too large quantities, the drink can be harmful: sugar and fermentation products cause fluid retention, swelling and aggravation of pain in the joints.

Beer

Like any other alcoholic drink, beer can increase the concentration of purines in the blood, which will lead to a gouty attack. A dangerous indicator is 400 mg of purines in 100 g of alcohol. For comparison, more than 1800 purines are concentrated in 100 g of beer, which is dangerous not only for patients in this category, but also for healthy people.

Since beer has a diuretic effect, it quickly dehydrates the body, as a result of which uric acid remains in the blood and makes it more viscous. It also leads to the fact that all toxic substances are concentrated in the internal organs. And as a result of blood thickening, nutrients and oxygen are transported harder to the tissues.

Mineral water

The use of natural mineral water containing a small concentration of alkali helps to neutralize the acidic environment of uric acid salts and prevents its crystals from settling. In addition, mineral water accelerates metabolism and helps to remove excess fluid from the body.

White wine

So doctors allow the use of this drink with gout, but no more than twice a week and no more than a glass. In this case, neither before nor after this drink can not eat fatty meat dishes.

Instant coffee

Theoretically, coffee does not contain purines, which cause the development of this disease.However, much depends on how this product was produced. Some manufacturers, who use not freezing, but heating the raw materials to high temperatures, are forced to restore damaged caffeine in the future. To do this, they use its synthetic analogue, made from xanthine and uric acid, which negatively affects metabolic processes and causes exacerbation of gout.

Champagne

An increased content of uric acid in the body implies a specific diet and refusal of alcohol under the threat of exacerbation of the disease and severe side effects.

White wines and champagne are considered relatively safe drinks for gout due to the reduced content of ethyl alcohol and antioxidant effect. At the same time, drinking is recommended to be combined with greens and other products that reduce the amount of purines.

If it is difficult for a patient with gout to give up alcohol on holidays, doctors recommend choosing homemade tinctures (for example, from rose hips) and light wine, in extreme cases - champagne.

Cranberry fruit drink

With gout, cranberry juice will help break up and remove salt deposits from the body, get rid of excess potassium, and normalize the level of urea.

Useful micronutrients, the presence of fiber, bioflavonoids and pectin substances that are in lemon, help to establish digestion and rid the body of toxins. The potassium content has a positive effect on the performance of the kidneys, accelerating the process of excretion of excess uric acid. Lemon drink helps establish an acid-base balance.

Ginger Tea

In this disease, coffee and black tea are prohibited. But ginger tea not only does not contain purines, but also helps to relieve joint pain, so that with gout it becomes an ideal alternative to these drinks. But you can drink it no more than one cup per day.

Hibiscus tea

The diuretic properties of red tea contribute to the elimination of uric acid from the body resulting from the breakdown of purine. It relieves swelling, normalizes metabolism, restores the water-salt balance. For a positive effect on the body of red tea, you need to take it regularly, 3 times a day.

Black tea

With this disease, it is necessary to increase fluid intake, so even doctors recommend that small amounts of tea be consumed. It stimulates the kidneys, which helps to remove excess fluid from the body, reduces swelling, improves the condition of affected joints, reduces the amount of salt.
