Been hospitalized once for 6 days. I can’t afford Uloric (which knocks it right out). Insurance won’t pay for generic colchine. I’ve done research and found magnesium, vitamin c and tumeric help. I’ve kept gout at bay now twice when I felt it coming on. I drink lots of water eat bananas and cherries daily. I just keep praying that I don’t get another “bad” attack. Drug companies and Insurance companies have made sure I cannot afford it.

I was put on alfuzosin for urinary issues and had one of the worst gout flares ever. Read on a prostrate cancer forum about the problem and stopped the alpha-blocker. Flare went away.

I was put on Naprosyn and after some time i didn’t feel any different, so i started on a Natural Rheumatoid Arthritis Formula treatment protocol from RICH HERBS FOUNDATION (ww w. richherbsfoundation. c om), the treatment made a great difference for me, it effectively treated my Rheumatoid Arthritis and symptoms. The swellings, stiffness, fatigue and joint/muscle/body pains has subsided, I feel better overall than i have felt in years.

Thank you for your comment, Alice. The article has been updated to omit these vegetables from the “avoid” list.

Multiple studies and related articles, including those published under the UHN Daily banner, have shown that neither spinach, cauliflower, mushrooms, and asparagus nor legumes contribute to gout flares even though they are high in purines.
