Food That Helps Gout Is Everywhere

Food that helps gout is food that is well balanced.
As well as balancing pH in favor of alkaline foods, you need to balance calorie intake with your level of activity, and balance vitamins and minerals.

The sweets table has a wide variety of different foods, with a corresponding wide range of acidity and alkalinity. As with many of the other food tables, most of the extreme values are dried products that would never normally be taken in 100 gram portions. And don't go thinking that you can balance a plate of acid producing meat or fish with 100 grams of something from the dark blue column. Just balancing pH is no good if you end up with a mountain of calories and no vitamins.

From this table, my vote goes to low calorie cherry pie filling. Never mind the crust - just top it off with a scoop of light vanilla ice cream (check there's no added fructose). A nice end to the meal without a huge acid load - it's just got to be food that helps gout.

When you're looking for food that helps gout, remember to study my PRAL food tables introduction, before you study this table.
