Gout Hater's
Cookbook I

Gout has often been characterized
as the King's proverbial swollen big toe.  Indeed, gout was traditionally thought to be associated with an intake of too many rich foods.

Actually, gout is typically brought
on by the body's inability to
eliminate excess uric acid, a
by-product of purines.

Attacks can be brought on by obesity, alcohol binges, hypertension, or extreme changes in diet. Gout can be treated using several methods.  These include symptom-relieving medicines, preventive medicines and a diet of low-purine foods. About 5.9 million people in the United States suffer from gout.  Aside from being extremely painful, gout can be an indicator for other serious illnesses.
