Foods That Reduce Uric
Acid
Foods
that reduce uric acid are not very abundant. But managing food intake to
reduce uric acid is pretty easy, if you focus on a
sensible diet, and not just
individual foods.
Nuts, listed in the table below are often alkaline, and to the extent that
uric acid is more soluble in an alkaline solution, they
might well be
classed as foods that reduce uric acid. They are also a good source of
anti-oxidants. Concentrating on pH balancing
may be achieved by using the following guide.
Nuts show quite a wide range in alkaline and acid producing values. The
alkalizing ones make a good addition to what would
otherwise be an acid
meal.
