Gout diet
hedgehog:
This isn’t for me. My friend went to the doctor today and it was confirmed that his foot pain is gout. I often make food for him. This is the hiking friend, so picnic lunches when we hike, dinners with our trivia team, and I usually bring breakfast if I sleep over at their house (which I will do next week). So I am looking for ideas if anyone is familiar with what foods are allowed and what should be limited.
hedgehog:
No help from SOAK? Well, I did figure out a breakfast. I saw from a few reliable sources that cherries are supposed to be good for gout, so I am making Julia Child's clafouti, and thinking of increasing the cherries in the recipe.

GoingNuts:
I think you’re supposed to avoid meat and shellfish, particularly shrimp? I think prurines are the culprit?
hedgehog:
Yeah. And his favorite food is bacon. In fact, at a brunch buffet over the weekend he indulged in bacon, sausage, shrimp, various other foods, and then had a flare up.
Macabre:
So I could just post what we eat at home. No meat and especially no shrimp! Lol.
It’s not hard to avoid meat.
