Poultry Foods Avoid Gout
If You Alkalize

Which foods avoid gout? Many people choose chicken because it is generally lower in purines than most meat products. It's also amongst the least acidic.

In fact most poultry products fall within a fairly narrow range. Less acidic poultry products tend to be raw, and so values are diluted through water content. These foods avoid gout problems when mixed with vegetables to increase total pH.

Like many of my acid/alkali food tables, you need to select foods from this table and mix them with foods from other tables. Mixing these foods avoid gout inducing traps that will cook your goose. Please read my introduction to PRAL food tables.
