Friday, March 26th, 2010
The basis of this disease is a violation of the so-called purine metabolism, when the decomposition of proteins in the body, is formed increased amounts of uric acid and its salts. All the true sufferer from gout uric acid in the blood is always improved. At the same time, urine may contain normal sufferer from gout, and even reduced the number of uric acid salts that are trapped in the joints, cartilage, muscle and other tissues of the body (gouty nodes) and causes pain attacks and distortions of the joints.
At the origin of the disease seems to play role is not one but several simultaneously operating points. It is based on a lack of education of enzymes break down uric acid. In addition, in gout disrupted the process of extracting uric acid propensity of tissues due to the deposition of these salts.
On the occurrence of the disease affect the causes, which depend on external influences and manifest themselves in relation to age, lifestyle, nutrition, etc. An important role among all these elements plays a character meal.
Uric acid in the body is formed from animal protein foods, especially meats and proteins fish, as well as some vegetable proteins (pulses, vegetables). Number of her body in a healthy person is negligible, and in patients with gout dramatically improved.
Sufferer from gout diet composed mainly of products with a minimum content of purines. This apurinovaya diet consists of the following dishes.
Drinks: milk, weak tea, coffee substitutes, fruit juices.
Soups: vegetable, mushroom, milk, fruit and decoctions of cereals.
Fruits and Vegetables, berries, and greens: in all kinds and all grades except for legumes. Tomatoes are prohibited only if all the oksalurii.
Dairy products, eggs and egg dishes are permitted in all forms.
With regard to meat and fish, the long-term exclusion of such products is not necessarily useful. Allowed to eat them boiled not more than once a day during gouty attacks of meat and fish should not eat. For washout from the tissues of uric acid salts appoint increased drinking of alkaline mineral water and other beverages, and limit to a minimum any dense foods, especially protein.
Roasted meat and fish, as well as broths of these products are prohibited in all stages of gout.
Assuming a certain amount of meat dishes, we do not make any difference between different varieties of the original product, as against purine bases white meat no poorer than the black. Of far greater importance is the method of cooking meat and fish dishes: when cooking meat and fish are losing some of its purines and proteins, and broths, by contrast, contain them in abundance due to the fact that the dense substance of meat and fish move into the broth.
Most varieties are rich in purines small fish (herring, sardines, sprat). To improve the taste of cooked meat and fish can be added in the form of roasted steaks, chops, chopped meatballs, etc.
When combined with gout, obesity is recommended to time the hungry days of fruit and vegetables for better discharge of the organism from slags.
From vegetables and fruits are of particular importance varieties that have strong diuretic (strawberry, cherry, melon, watermelon, cabbage), through which the body abundantly washed uric acid salts. Similar effect and radish juice (mix of choleretic and diuretic effect).
The prerequisites are a sufferer from gout treatment exercise and regulation of the chair. In working joints of uric acid salts are deposited not as easy as in the fixed. When sedentary gouty symptoms intensified, so the sufferer from gout should exercise regularly and gymnastics, walks, and, where necessary, to resort to a massage.
Caring for the right daily stool dictated by the fact that between gouty attacks and bolts of a strong connection (delay of salts in the intestines). In the presence of constipation to the main table gouty added prunes, yogurt, sugar water, raw vegetables and greens, etc.
