Gout

Gout is a metabolic disease characterized by excessive amounts of uric acid in the blood and deposits of uric acid crystals in the joints. Uric acid is a byproduct of protein metabolism and is filtered from the blood by the kidneys.

It is important, therefore, to alkalize the diet. Animal protein consumption should be reduced. Soda pop should be avoided completely. Complex carbohydratres such as fresh fruits, dark green vegetables and other alkaline-forming foods should be increased in the diet. Follow the same general recommendations as those listed under
Arthritis.

The following may help.

Alfalfa, Burdock, Chickweed, Dandelion, Devil’s Claw, DHA, Herbal CA, Joint Health, Joint Support, Kava Kava, KB-C, Kidney Drainage, L-Glutamine, Lemon Oil, Pine, Red Beet Formula, Red Clover Blend, Safflowers, Sarsaparilla, Uva Ursi
