Answer 1

Dietary recommendations in cases of gout
Many factors affect our dietary behaviour; individual needs and desires, our day-to-day condition, the social environment, the food currently on offer, advertising etc. The following recommendations ensure a balanced and varied diet that provides an adequate intake of energy, nutrients and protective substances and thus a healthy approach to nutrition. The figures quoted are intended for the "average person", i.e. for adults who engage in normal physical activities and thus have an average energy and nutrient requirement. The figures would vary for other groups (such as children and adolescents, top athletes, pregnant women etc.). The quantities and portions given are likewise average values; they cannot be adhered to precisely every day. Those passages that appear in italics are particularly important for persons with a tendency towards gout.

Fats and oils:
Use 2 teaspoonfuls (10 g) of high-quality vegetable oil (e.g. sunflower oil, thistle oil, corn oil, olive oil, rapeseed oil) per day, unheated, e.g. for salad dressings.
Use not more than 2 teaspoonfuls (10 g) of cooking fat or oil per day (e.g. peanut oil, olive oil) for the preparation of meals.
Do not eat more than 2 teaspoonfuls (10 g) of spreading butter or margarine per day on bread.
Avoid high-fat meals as much as possible, but certainly do not partake of such meals more than twice a week (e.g. deep-fried or breaded food, cheese dishes, fried potato, sausage, cream sauce, puff pastry, cakes, chocolate).

Sweets:
Eat sweets in moderation - many sweets contain hidden fat.

Meat, fish and eggs:
Do not eat more than one portion (80 - 120 g) of low fat meat per day, 2 - 4 times a week - more is unnecessary, less is no problem. Eat poultry as far as possible without the skin.
Do not substitute salted meat products (ham, sausage, bacon etc.) for meat more than once a week. As far as possible completely avoid offal (liver, kidneys, tripe, sweetbreads).
Eat 1 - 3 portions of fish (100 - 120 g) per week instead of meat; remove skin. As far as possible completely avoid tinned fish and shellfish.
Eat 1 - 3 eggs per week (including processed eggs e.g. eat in cakes and pastries, soufflés or creams).

Pulses, pulse products:
Eat 1 portion a week (lentils, chickpeas, kidney beans, tofu etc.).

Milk and dairy products:
Eat 2 - 3 portions per day (1 portion = 2 dl milk or 1 cup of yogurt or 30 g hard cheese or 60 g soft cheese), preferably fat-reduced products.

Cereal products and potatoes:
Eat at least 3 portions of carbohydrate-rich foods per day (e.g. bread, potatoes, rice, cereal, pasta, etc.), preferably wholemeal products.

Fruit:
Eat 2 - 3 portions of fruit per day (e.g. 1 apple, 3 plums or a dish of berries), ideally raw.

Vegetables:
Eat 3 - 4 portions of vegetable per day, at least one of them raw (e.g. mixed salad).

Beverages:
Drink a lot of liquid (2 - 3 litres, or 8 - 12 glasses per day), preferably unsweetened and alcohol-free beverages.

Alcoholic drinks:
Avoid alcohol if possible.


Gout - chief points to remember:


Lose weight, if necessary.
Drink at least 2 litres of liquid a day, as calorie-free as possible.
Avoid alcohol.
No fasting.

Vegetables- avoid peas and beans ** Do eat greens, squash, sweet potatoes, carrots, onions, beets, celery, etc**
