#1
Heart 
[size=4][b]Definition Purines - Different Kinds of Gout Causes[/b][/size][hr]Gout is a painful rheumatic disease that affects more than 800 out of every 100,000 individuals. Arthritic gout can occur at any time after puberty until the age of seventy-five. More common in men than women, arthritic gout can cause intense pain in the joints that can last for a few minutes or a few days. Those with gout should see their doctor to see if there are any medications that may prevent or help with the pain in case of another attack. Most people who have gout will have pain a few times a year. This can vary from person to person based on their lifestyle and heredity.

Quote:Dieticians who understand the cause of gout will often recommend patients flush out their systems, or dilute the uric acid, by drinking plenty of water. Since the cause of gout appears to be related to the consumption of alcoholic beverages, particularly beer, it is advisable to abstain from alcohol which may raise uric acid levels in the blood. We did not write too elaborate an article on Excess Uric Acid as it would be then difficult for the common man to read it. We have written this article in such a way that everyone will be able to read and understand it!

[list][*]Addition, the cause of gout has also been linked to foods that break down into uric acid.[*]After you understand the cause of gout, it makes sense to avoid a diet that contains shrimp, dried beans, mushrooms, sardines and mushrooms. Smile[/list]

People with high blood pressure need to be careful of the drugs they may use for treatment as some of these pills may actually result in a gout attack. Other medications that may cause gout include low doses of aspirin, some cancer fighting drugs, diuretics, niacin and cyclosporine.

Conclusion, the cause of gout has been most definitely linked to uric acid crystals that accumulate over months or years in connective tissues in and around the joints. It's not uncommon for gout to be misdiagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis or pseudogout. Hence, it is crucial for you to approach your family doctor to find out what are the cause of your gout condition and plan an appropriate course of action. :o.

[list][*]One simple explanation of the cause of gout may be a poor diet that is rich in purines which aggravates gout.[*]Another cause of gout may be lead in the environment.[*]Being overweight has often been associated with gout, because people who are overweight usually produce a lot of excess uric acid.[/list]

What is the cause of some of the painful symptoms associated with gout? Experts say the concentration in the blood is so high that the uric acid settles in the joints of people with gout, a leading cause of gout attacks. While the cause of gout is deposits of needle-like crystals of uric acid in connective tissue, some physicians might misdiagnose gout because of associated symptoms such as redness, swelling, heat, pain and stiffness of the joints that resembles rheumatoid arthritis and other conditions.

[size=large][b]What is Gout?[/b][/size][hr]Gout is a form of arthritis resulting from deposits of uric acid crystals formed in the bodies' joints. A gout attack will usually attack only one joint at a time, the big toe being the most common. Other joints that may also be impacted by gout are the feet, ankle, knee, hand, and wrist. The pain will typically last five to fourteen days, at which point the crystals will leave the joint.

[size=large][b]What are the Risk Factors?[/b][/size][hr]- Alcohol. Excessive consumption of alcohol is believed to inhibit the bodies' ability to dispose of excess uric acid.

[size=large][b]What Causes Gout?[/b][/size][hr]This question is still up in the air. The quick answer is that hyperuricemia, which is an elevated blood level of uric acid, is responsible for gout. With that said, not all patients with hyperuricemia develop gout, and some patients with gout do not have hyperuricemia. Although it is not clear how hyperuricemia relates to gout, one thing is clear; gout is associated with sudden changes in uric acid levels in the blood. There has been a gradual introduction to the world of Uric Acid Crystals projected in this article. We had done this so that the actual meaning of the article will sink within you.

[size=large][b]Organ Meats, Such as Brain, Kidney, Liver, and Sweetbreads[/b][/size][hr]- Anchovies - Mackerel - Herring - Sardines - Gravies - Dried beans and peas We were a bit tentative when embarking on this project on Decrease Uric Acid.

I must state however that there is no guaranteed way to prevent a gout attack. Important Disclaimer; Many of the following suggestions are intended to decrease your blood uric acid level. Ultimately, this should be your goal, but a sudden drop in your blood uric acid level, may cause a gout attack. I suggest that all lifestyle changes be made at a moderate pace to decrease the risk.

[list][*]Avoid Alcohol.[*]As stated before, alcohol interferes with the body excreting uric acid.[*]Definitely stay away from alcohol if you are experiencing a gout attack.[/list]

[b]Foods with high and moderately high purine levels include: - All other meat - Other beans, such as kidney, lima, navy, lentil - Some vegetables, such as asparagus, cauliflower, mushrooms, and spinach [/b]

Discussed the value of drinking water in natural gout treatment in earlier articles. Of course all types of water are not equal, for example hard water is better than soft because of its additional mineral content and distilled water is acidic. Probably the best of all waters for natural gout treatment is alkaline water, also called ionized water. :o.

[list][*]Hopefully these indicate that the theory has indeed shaken hands with the practice, and the rejoicing is happily justified.[*]Most gout sufferers hope for a natural remedy for gout.[*]Taking account of pH is part of natural gout treatment. Smile[/list]

[size=large][b]Ionizers are Easily Installed to Your Faucet (Tap)[/b][/size][hr]Most people will not need a plumber or next door neighbour. The ionizers of course cost more, but the water they produce is cheaper over time, say the manufacturers of one leading brand, than buying bottled water of various kinds. So it will pay in the end to think long term and fork out more cash. For a quality ionizer expect to pay from US$769 to US$2,495 for a top-of-the-range-model. (These are U.S. prices. Prices will vary in other countries). You also need to replace the ionizer's biostone filter about every nine months. Filters cost from US$55 to US$ The ionizer may last up to 20 years.

Testimonials from gout sufferers, (one is a doctor), about the value of alkaline water can be read at ***** and at ***** The magnitude of information available on Gout Remedies can be found out by reading the following matter on Gout Remedies. We ourselves were surprised at the amount!

[size=large][b]IONIZERS are BETTER THAN DROPS[/b][/size][hr]As well as being cheaper than drops, ionizers can be adjusted to produce a water pH of a specific value more accurately. Set it to pH 8.5 or pH 9.0 for example. They can also produce purified water and leave you with acidic water, which has its uses. Moreover, the best water ionizers adjust for the overall quality of water supply input. By so doing, they produce a correct pH level, irrespective of water supply quality, water pressure and flow rate.

[size=large][b]ALKALINE WATER TESTIMONIALS[/b][/size][hr]Testimonials from delighted former gout sufferers can be found in many places on the Internet. Unfortunately they are not everything for every gout sufferer because gout is a complicated, still not wholly understood disease, and because what works for one sufferer may not work for others.

After a period of drinking alkaline water your body pH should rise. How will you know? Saliva pH can be tested with pH test strips (search pH test strips or pH stix). Your saliva pH is a good indication of your body's pH levels. Make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions for using them carefully. Record numbers and watch for trend changes over time. A few tests are not enough.

Moreover, however sincerely meant, and truthfully stated, testimonials may not be accurate in the long term because gout can go into remission and lie low for a long period before flaring up again. On the other hand there are testimonials from people who have not had a gout attack for 1-2 years or more, and this probably indicates a cure has been achieved. Writing this composition on Gout Remedies was a significant contribution of ours in the world of literature. Make this contribution worthwhile by using it.

[size=large][b]MAKING ALKALINE WATER[/b][/size][hr]Most people are not able to buy alkaline water at their local supermarket or grocery store. You have to make it yourself. It's not difficult. Basically you can either add alkaline drops to regular water or you can have a water ionizer do it for you. Alkaline drops can be purchased via the Internet and delivered to you, search alkaline water drops, or alkaline drops.

The reason is that alkaline water has a higher pH value than other kinds. Alkaline water is water with more oxygen, in this case OH-, not O Drinking it makes the body more alkaline. In this state, the body is likely to excrete more uric acid. Reducing uric acid levels to below 0 mg/dL (men), slightly less in women, is the target of most forms of gout treatment whether drug medications or natural remedies. Alkaline water is also an antioxidant which squelches free radicals.
