1068. Gout Talk: Exploring the Latest Findings

 In the late 1960’s and into the 70’s it was believed that gout was caused by high levels of purines because of eating too much meat. The purines would break down into uric acid and cause gouty arthritis to occur. Dr. Martin says it was never about meat, but had to do with too much fructose. A recent study is saying that two or more servings of orange juice makes you 2.5x more susceptible to getting gout. Don’t drink your fructose is something Dr. Martin has said for years! Join Dr. Martin as he shares the latest research about gout and how to prevent it.
