For me, this is a new "Gout" food I shouldn't be eating anyway!

Well, today my foot feels like its back to about 90% normal. it makes
me think it wasn't gout that got me, but something else perhaps. How
weird.

I wonder if high blood sugar could have caused it. I finally got some
more test strips and it was way high after eating that pizza. I think
I'm going to add pizza to my "never going to eat it again" list. Its
just too bad for me.

I was very pleasantly surprised when I stood up this morning and there
was almost no pain. Yippee!

Thanks again to all of you who were so supportive!

So, what is the name of the daily medication that people with gout
take so they can eat their favorite gout producing foods again?

You're telling a diabetic to drink cherry juice? He may as well just shoot
himself. The death will be quicker and much less painful.

I do take tart cherry pills. Not sure if they would have the same effect as
the juice. I take them because they contain antioxidants.

This is extremely easy for you to fix. The above poster has no clue.
He makes no original posts. He just takes a fragment of somebody else's
post and reposts it. Just killfile him. Do not killfile the entire
"from" header, as that number garbage changes with every post. For
instance, you could just killfile something like:

"Never" is a long time.

For many decades, we were taught that sugar = evil and sugar = diabetes.
In the last ten or fifteen years, we've found out that that isn't true.
The last few diabetes classes I've taken, the instructors were very
clear that we don't ever talk about sugar. All that matters is total
carbs. Although I have some doubts about glycemic index, and don't
understand glycemic load very well, it's clear that when you compare
sugar, boiled potatoes and white bread, it's the latter two that spike
the blood glucose, not the sugar.

So, for those (not you and me, at least not right now) who need this,
some research would be desirable. Could fresh cherries, which have
fiber, be substituted? Exactly what type of cherry juice (I've seen a
couple of TJ cherry juices on the internet)? What's the carb count?
What's your carb allowance in your diet? How can this juice be fit into
that?


I'm not surprised.

You can have episodic gout and not as a chronic condition. What happens is
during an attack you can sustain a lot of damage to the joint, tendons and
tissue. That damage really never heals. So minor injuries or just aging
can make the joint flare up with pain and inflammation even though it may
not be a gout attack. If you have seen pictures of uric acid crystals they
are really large and very sharp looking. They look just like long daggers.

to sell that is totally controlled by the govt, at least that is what the
bbc story said... thefre was a huge deal when states ehere in the us wanted
to go to a more british/european model, almost had pharma ceos crapping i am

On the contrary, diet and avoiding working the affected
joints is the non-drug treatment. It takes several days
to be effective, more if you ignore the part about not
working the affected joints.

Well, use whatever terminology you like. Gout is a chronic condition
and is treated with allopurinol or probenecid, and these treatments
if successful prevent more attacks.
