weight loss and gout (gouty arthritis) …. help please!?
My dad has gout and he’s trying to lose weight and just be healthier overall…. He started eating healthier and limiting the types of foods that can trigger gout, but he just had another gout attack. After some research I found out that fasting and low calorie diets can bring on a gout attack because it’ll increase uric acid levels and that’s what causes the painful gout attacks.(i also read that over exercising can trigger attacks as well) Now i’ve been looking online for a while and different sources keep saying how important it is to lose weight if you’re overweight with gout, but I don’t know how he should do it? (since low calorie diets are out of the question)
any ideas would be appreciated! thank you!
Allopurinol is a drug that a physician can prescribe to control Gout and it is not expensive.
Gout is perhaps the very most painful form of Arthritis. However, it is not life threatening although it does make playing Soccer really uncomfortable which, in my opinion, is just as bad.
