Do you suffer from Gout? If so, how do you deal with it & treat it?

Answer 1

There is no one effective gout home treatment that can be used for everyone to cure gout. Some may need medication to treat gout while others may have to change their diet and exercise habits. Eating food that has low purine levels seems to be the gout home treatment that works for most people. This treatment helps to prevent uric acid from building up in the body and perhaps, is the most effective long-term solution for keeping the gout attacks under control.

Other types of treatment can include herbal remedies. In order to help narrow down the type of gout home treatment to use, one should first research on all the available types of treatment when a person is looking for a possible gout treatment. This will provide better knowledge on the types of gout home treatment that will work and the ones will not. It is important to consult your doctor first before starting an herbal remedy if one is on any form of medication.

Another popular form of gout home treatment is to modifying the intake of alcohol consumption. This is because consumption of alcohol causes hyperuricaemia by both an increase in urate production and a reduction in renal excretion of urate, leading to a possible acute attack of gout. Alcoholic beverages containing yeast also contain purines which are broken down to urate that must be eliminated. In addition, alcohol can contribute to obesity because it contains more kilojoules or calories than an equivalent weight of sugars and starches. In order for this kind of gout home treatment to be effective, gout patients should not consume more than one standard alcoholic drink a day which equates to 300ml of beer.

Yes, I do, and it is mighty painful. There are prescription medications available. Ask your doctor. There is even one to be taken so as to avoid the onset of gout. I forget the name, but your doctor will know. Meanwhile, cut way back on eating a lot of protein, especially meat of any kind. Good luck.
