Men Living with Gout?
AVOID all MSG. Stay away from McDonald and ALL fast food. Fast Food has a lot of MSG. Stay away from Soups, unless you know it does not have MSG in it. Soup bases are loaded with MSG. Stay away from Seasonings that have MSG. You can still go to a Chinese restaurant, but make sure you ask for NO MSG. No Sausage ever, unless it says NO MSG. No sausage on your Pizza EVER because 95% of all Sausage has MSG. NO RED WINE, white's ok, but not RED. Eat more Vegetables and berries on a daily basis.
I have been battling with Gout since I was 27, now 40. My family has a history of Arthritis. The Dr's wouldn't admit that it was GOUT until I was 34 because no one would give me a Uric Acid test because they thought I was to young and not over weight. It seemed like every time I tried to get back on a strict diet and exercise routine (I am athletic and have run 2 marathons, exercise 5 days a week) I would have a severe Gout attack that laid me up for a couple of days. The body chemistry would change quickly which stressed the body and caused a Gout attack. Even a bad wipe out skiing will trigger a Gout attach because the adrenaline will change your body chemistry quickly, putting stress on the body, thus triggering a Gout attack.
In 2008 and 2009 I was having severe Gout attacks monthly. In the month of December 2009 I was in bed for half the month. Enough was enough. I knew there was a link between MSG and my gout attacks, but not until I get passionately strict and removed ALL MSG did I get my Gout under control. I can still drink beer and eat steak now and then. Just as long as I eat a lot of vegetables, berries, drink lots of water, and exercise.
I hope this helps. Not every one has the same Gout triggers, but these are mine. It takes along time to figure what works and what doesn't.
God Bless,
Jeff
