With the change of modern people's lifestyle, high uric acid is more and more common.
When uric acid is not excreted smoothly, it can cause elevated uric acid. After the increase of uric acid, in addition to the attack of gout, it will also lead to a series of diseases such as kidney, cardiovascular, metabolic syndrome and so on.
In order to avoid the occurrence of these diseases, we need to make adjustments in terms of daily diet, water intake and living habits.
First of all, we need to stay away from two types of food, namely high-purine foods and alcohol.
High-purine foods mainly refer to meat, seafood, animal offal, soy products, peanuts, etc., these foods contain higher purine, and excessive intake can easily cause elevated uric acid.
Alcohol, on the other hand, inhibits the excretion of uric acid, resulting in an increase in uric acid in the body, so it is necessary to avoid drinking as much as possible.
Second, we need to pay attention to the way we drink water.
First of all, you need to drink more plain water, because boiled water does not cause uric acid to rise. Second, we need to avoid sugary drinks and acidic beverages.
The sugar in sugary drinks is metabolized to produce a substance called lactic acid, which inhibits the excretion of uric acid, causing uric acid to rise.
Acidic beverages will increase the burden on the kidneys and affect the excretion of uric acid.
Finally, we need to pay attention to our own living habits.
Moderate exercise, good sleep habits, and reduced mental stress are required. These all help lower uric acid levels.
All in all, high uric acid requires a variety of measures to adjust, including avoiding high-purine foods and drinking, avoiding sugary and acidic beverages as much as possible, and optimizing your lifestyle habits.
Only in this way can various diseases caused by elevated uric acid, especially the attack of gout, be avoided.
