The relationship between soft drinks and gout

Soft drinks are prohibited for gout patients, because they contain a large amount of sugar, which doubles the risk of gout, as sugar is one of the most important risk factors for gout, and drinking one sugar-sweetened beverage on a daily basis increases the risk of gout.

In some studies, researchers have found that people who drink sweetened beverages on a daily basis, such as soft drinks and canned juices, are more likely to develop gout, because sugars increase uric acid levels in the blood.

Gout prevention tips

1- Drink plenty of healthy fluids, especially water, throughout the day, to stimulate the kidneys to purify the body from high levels of uric acid.

2- Stay away from foods rich in purines, such as seafood, fatty foods, beans and spinach, because eating them leads to high uric acid in the body.

3- Exercising, such as walking, provided that joint pain does not impede movement.
