Strenuous exercise can induce gout, can people with high uric acid still exercise?
Many friends with gout have this experience. After playing basketball or long-distance running, gout suddenly broke out. Is gout caused by exercise? Accurately speaking, gout induced by strenuous exercise is related to decreased blood flow and low uric acid excretion, so the blood uric acid concentration is high. In addition, during strenuous exercise, lactic acid production in the body increases, uric acid excretion in the body decreases and it is easy to deposit on the joints, thus inducing gout attacks.

Then the question is coming, can high uric acid still exercise?

The answer is yes, for the following reasons:

First, long-term regular aerobic exercise can reduce uric acid levels.

First of all, what is aerobic exercise? Exclusion means not doing anaerobic exercise, but strenuous exercise belongs to anaerobic exercise, such as football, basketball, running, weight lifting, abdominal muscle exercise, push-ups, marathon and other sports that require a lot of effort and instant strength.

Some scholars have studied the relationship between aerobic exercise and uric acid in the elderly. According to the frequency of aerobic exercise, 35 cases were divided into high-intensity exercise group (aerobic exercise time was more than 2 years and each time was more than 30 minutes) 18 cases, and low-intensity exercise group (aerobic exercise time was less than 2 years and each time was less than 30 minutes). Then the uric acid levels of the two groups were detected. The results showed that the prevalence of hyperuricemia in the high exercise group was lower than that in the low exercise group. The results show that long-term regular aerobic exercise is helpful for the elderly to lose weight.

Second, you can choose to walk, jog, play ball, etc.

People with hyperuricemia are often obese and do not like sports. Improving the obese body shape of patients through exercise can effectively control the uric acid level of patients. Obese people should reduce their weight to standard weight or lower, but not too fast, otherwise it will easily lead to the increase of ketone bodies and hinder uric acid excretion. You can choose to walk, jog, play ball, etc. Of course you need to control the time and intensity of exercise.

Third, aerobic exercise should be moderate exercise.

Another scholar intervened in diet and exercise for 3 months in 44/kloc-0 patients with hyperuricemia. The main exercise options are walking, jogging, dancing (slow-paced), Tai Chi and sword dancing. Aerobic exercise should be moderate, and should be carried out after meals 1 hour, about 1 hour every day, five times a week. After intervention, the serum uric acid level of patients decreased significantly compared with that before intervention.

In short, moderate aerobic exercise is also one of the measures to control hyperuricemia, which can not only consume excess calories, accelerate metabolism, promote uric acid excretion and relieve joint pain. However, it should be noted that the intensity of aerobic exercise should not be too high and the exercise time should not be too long. Moderate intensity aerobic exercise is an appropriate method to prevent joint strain.

We can see that the incidence of hyperuricemia has increased year by year in recent years. We know that diet control is one of the most effective methods to control uric acid. Making a targeted diet control plan can reduce blood uric acid by reducing purine intake. Increasing the intake of alkaline food and improving the solubility of uric acid can accelerate the excretion of uric acid. On the basis of diet control, combined with medical treatment under the guidance of doctors and reasonable exercise, uric acid level will be well controlled to avoid gout.
