What simple and effective method is there to treat gout, and how to pay attention to diet when you get gout?
Gout is a systemic chronic metabolic disease, which is caused by abnormal purine metabolism in the body and increased uric acid, a metabolite of purine in the blood. Gout can't be cured once it happens, so the best way to prevent it is to check the blood uric acid concentration regularly (once every 3 months). Once the blood uric acid is found to exceed the normal value, you should take uric acid-lowering drugs. As long as hyperuricemia is well controlled, gout will not happen. The general principles for treating gout are: 1) reasonable diet control; 2) Take enough water; 3) Life should be regular; 4) Appropriate participation in sports activities; 5) Take effective medication; 6) Regular physical examination. In order to prevent gout, the diet should be three more and three less: 1 Drink more water and less soup. People with high blood uric acid and gout should drink more boiled water and less broth, fish soup, chicken soup and hot pot soup. The osmotic pressure of boiling water is most beneficial to dissolve various harmful substances in the body. Drinking more boiled water can dilute uric acid, accelerate excretion and reduce uric acid level. Soup contains a lot of purine components, which can not dilute uric acid, but lead to an increase in uric acid. Eat more alkaline food and less acidic food. Gout patients themselves have purine metabolism disorder and abnormal uric acid. If they eat too much acidic food, it will aggravate their illness and is not conducive to rehabilitation. Eating more alkaline foods will help to supplement potassium, sodium and chloride ions and maintain acid-base balance. Due to the endocrine disorder of patients, alkaline substances are not easily absorbed. It is suggested to drink more soda water containing minerals, which can be absorbed in a small amount under the action of trace minerals to improve the acidic environment in patients. Eat more vegetables and eat less. Eating more vegetables helps to reduce purine intake, increase vitamin C and increase cellulose. Eating less is beneficial to control calorie intake, limit weight and lose weight and fat. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment of gout is mainly to eliminate pathogenic factors in acute attack, and the treatment methods include eliminating dampness and turbidity, expelling wind and cold, clearing away heat and toxic materials, promoting blood circulation and dredging collaterals. Other therapies, such as acupuncture, massage, bloodletting therapy and plaster therapy, have certain curative effects. (Zibo Gufang Institute of Difficult Diseases of Traditional Chinese Medicine)
