Guo Qilin's episode was painful. Why do many people get gout at a young age now?
Many people are familiar with and love Guo Qilin, a cadre of Deyun Youth Class. He was born in 1996 and 95 years later. However, it is this seemingly healthy and energetic young man who is troubled by gout.

In the food tourism program "Roaming" broadcast on 20 19, Guo Qilin had gout attack, and his feet were so swollen that he could hardly open his eyes.

Even if the drug was relieved, the effect was not very good at that time.

Wallace Chung, the guest of the program, cares about Guo Qilin. Why is your foot swollen? Why don't you have a long memory Guo Qilin wry smile, I forgot, I haven't been sick for a year, this time to go abroad a little carried away.

This time I went abroad, I had so much fun, stayed up late, stayed up late, ate a lot of meat and seafood, and so on. Guo Qilin forgot his uric acid problem. I can only take a wheelchair for the rest of my trip.

When it comes to the cause of gout, Guo Qilin said in the program that when he was a child, he ate the hot pot of instant-boiled mutton at home, and then he ate up the meat and drank the soup of instant-boiled mutton. Wallace Chung, the actor, was afraid. Nobody stopped you? Guo Qilin said, because everyone in the family also eats soup, I think this is a way to eat.

When I was a child, Guo Qilin was overweight, and then she slowly lost weight.

He himself talked about the cause of gout attack in the program "Flowers and Flowers", not only drinking, but also the result of multiple factors.

"20 17 white paper on gout status report in China" shows that the number of patients with hyperuricemia in China has reached1700,000, and the number of gout patients has exceeded 80 million.

Similar to Guo Qilin, there are many people who suffer from gout in their teens and twenties. According to the analysis of clinical features of 748 cases of gout, the proportion of young patients increased year by year from October 2008 to Kloc-0/3, accounting for 39% and 39% respectively. 4%, 40%, 42%, 48% and 52%, even more than middle-aged and elderly patients.

This is not only related to heredity, but also related to life factors.

Why do young people nowadays get gout at a young age?

1. Too much meat.

The sudden change of diet structure is the chief culprit of gout in China from "rare" in the past to "multiple" or even "high" today.

Our ancestors were mainly cereals, but in our generation, the food structure suddenly changed and became mainly meat.

Purine in a large number of meat foods will be converted into uric acid, which greatly exceeds the physiological metabolism and excretion ability, leading to hyperuricemia, so the incidence of gout increases rapidly.

2. Too many sweet drinks

Nowadays, many people like to think of drinks as water. However, most sweet drinks contain fructose corn syrup, and gout attacks are directly related to the intake of fructose corn syrup.

20 1 1 An article on the epidemiology of uric acid and fructose collected by the National Library of America found that:

People who drink drinks containing high fructose corn syrup 5-6 times a week have a higher risk of gout than normal people, while those who drink drinks containing high fructose corn syrup more than 2 times a day have a higher risk of gout as high as 85%!

3. Hobbies smoking and drinking

Bad hobbies such as smoking and drinking will increase the risk of gout.

Don't mention wine, there is no good wine before gout. Wine does not contain purine and does not produce uric acid. Its metabolite is lactic acid. But it is this lactic acid that competes with uric acid in the kidney and inhibits its excretion.

Abstinence from alcohol is very important. All kinds of alcohol can induce gout, and beer is the fastest. Beer contains carbon dioxide, which is absorbed quickly, and it will be converted into carbonic acid, which will lower the pH value and hinder the excretion of uric acid.

4. Overweight or obesity

Obese people are more prone to high uric acid, after all, most of them eat too well, big fish and big meat, sweet drinks, but lack exercise.

Overweight or obesity is one of the factors leading to gout, and losing weight can help reduce the risk of gout attack.

5. Too little exercise

There are too many sedentary people now. Moderate exercise can accelerate metabolism and facilitate the excretion of body wastes, including uric acid.

6. Staying up too much is too stressful.

In recent years, it has been found that excessive stress has become one of the main factors inducing gout in young people. It is inevitable that many young people work overtime and stay up late now. Overwork will make the autonomic nervous regulation function of human body disorder, which will easily lead to contraction of body surface and visceral blood vessels, including renal blood vessels, thus causing a decrease in uric acid excretion. If you work hard for a long time and are overtired, gout may be induced.

To prevent gout, you must remember 4 points!

Adjusting lifestyle is the core of preventing uric acid from rising, and gout prevention should start from life.

1. Drink 1500ml of water every day.

The primary task of preventing uric acid from rising is to drink plenty of water. The daily water consumption should be above 1500ml, which is almost equivalent to two bottles of mineral water.

2. Aerobic exercise every week 150 minutes.

You should do moderate-intensity exercise for more than 30 minutes every day to control your weight within the normal range.

For example, swimming, walking, aerobics, qigong, cycling and so on can be done.

3. Control the daily meat intake

Pay attention to controlling meat intake. According to the suggestion of China Residents' Balanced Diet Pagoda (20 16), if you eat 40-75g aquatic products and 40-75g livestock and poultry meat every day, the daily meat consumption will be 80- 150g. Weight here refers to the raw weight of meat, that is, the weight before cooking.

Generally, the size and thickness of a palm (excluding fingers) is about 50 grams, and lean meat such as pork, chicken, duck and fish can be calculated according to this method. If it is meat with less fat, such as shrimp and shellfish, the amount of one hand is slightly more, about 85 grams.

4. Eat less high-sugar food

Eat less high-sugar foods, especially high-fructose corn syrup foods. The Dietary Guidelines for China Residents (20 16) suggests that the daily intake of added sugar per person should not exceed 50g, preferably within 25g.

For example, eat more natural food and less artificial food. Eating some sweet watermelons and peaches is better than eating sweet cakes and drinking sugary drinks directly.

Do not take the initiative to drink sugary drinks, and drink less lactic acid bacteria drinks. When drinking coffee and soybean milk, add little or no sugar.
