Foods To Choose
The major step in taking control of gout revolves around diet - limiting the intake of the foods listed above, but more importantly, incorporating foods proven to protect the body from the over-production of uric acid. These include:
CELERY - great for renewing joints, bones, arteries, connective tissue, as well as clearing digestive fermentation, a major factor that causes dampness and acidic blood.
TOMATO - helpful in alkalizing the blood and treating the acid blood condition of gout.
CHERRIES - whether in juice or fruit form, studies have found these to be incredibly effective as a preventative remedy as well as a powerful treatment for pain and inflammation. These include red, black, and sweet yellow cherries. Drinking just 16 ounces daily of cherry juice or celery juice can dramatically lower the incidence of gout attacks.
BANANAS, STRAWBERRIES, KALE, CABBAGE, PARSLEY AND LEAFY GREEN VEGETABLES - are all strong allies against the formation of uric acid.
