March 18, 2020 by Admin
It can be said that there are people prone to gout. In the same way, it can be said that there are products that favor gout of people who regularly eat these foods. To help patients cope with gouty pain, doctors usually prescribe anti-inflammatory drugs and effective painkillers – and often this end. The patient does not dare to go in search of the cause of his illness – and remains alone with pain and analgesics. A disease in the meantime, muffled by drugs, develops implicitly. But Natural treatment suggests that in the case of gout, you should first pay attention to your diet. In particular, on products rich in purines – and try to minimize their quantity in your menu. In particular, it is meat in general, meat sauces and soups, offal, mushrooms, herring, sardines, mussels.
DIET THERAPY
The ideal diet, in this case, should contain a lot of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains. The therapeutic effect is sprouted wheat grains. Fruits, vegetables, and juices from them help the excretion of uric acid. And some berries – like cherries and strawberries – neutralize the effect of uric acid. Often, taking fresh cherry juice becomes the only medicine for patients with gout – it also prevents pain attacks.
EPSOM SALT
The so-called Epsom salt is used as a bath supplement with a concomitant massage. Epsom salt contains magnesium and has a beneficial effect on blood circulation, lowering blood pressure. It helps remove toxins and heavy metals. Relieves stress. Application: Slowly pour 2 cups of salt under a stream of water filling the bathtub. When the bathtub is full, immerse yourself in it and relax until the water cools down somewhat.
WATER
Drink enough pure water daily to flush out toxins and lower uric acid levels. If there are no disturbances in the functioning of the heart and kidneys, you can increase the amount of fluid to 2 liters per day. In addition, a large amount of water will not allow kidney stones to form, which patients with gout are very prone to.
VITAMIN C
Although tomatoes contain purines, they are very rich in vitamin C, so you should not exclude them from the diet. Increase your intake of citrus fruits, berries, fresh bell peppers, and herbs. All these products help relieve inflammation due to the aforementioned vitamin and bioflavonoids.
