Does anyone have a home remedy for gout and keeping uric acids down?
my hubby has gout and HBP and the pills they want him to take for the gout r really bad for his kidneys. So, I am looking for a home remedy that can hopefully prevent reoccurances from flaring up.

admin answers:
Cherries! Lots of bing and other edible cherries.
That and a very careful diet to avoid the known gout-porducing foods.

Thomas asks…
What home remedies have proven effective for gout?

admin answers:
Drink lots of fluids every day. One of the best ways to help process and rid the body of uric acid is to drink plenty of water and vegetable juices
Avoid or limit your intake of foods that are purine rich.
Eat lots of fruit and vegetables. These types of foods are low in protein and purine, so they will prevent having a uric acid buildup in your body.
Stop drinking alcoholic beverages.
Take the appropriate medication. Typically there are three different types of medicine used to treat gout. One relieves the pain, the other reduces inflammation, and the third helps to reduce the buildup of uric acid that triggers gout. The best medicine to use for pain relief is Tylenol. The best treatment for inflammation is colchicine, which is a non-steroidal drug.
