If you are looking for information about gout foods to avoid, such as pork chops or pork tenderloin, please note that I have moved the detailed nutrition tables to a new website.

Why?

Because such detailed nutritional analysis is beyond the scope of this gout support website.

Before you start looking at individual gout foods to avoid, you need a good gout management plan, and a thorough understanding of how food affects gout. At the very least, you must read the information on planning an alkalizing gout diet menu. Then if you still want to assess PRAL values of ham, spare ribs, or any other food or drink, you can browse my Acid-Alkaline Pork Products Food Chart.

I have retained the former introduction to the pork PRAL chart...

No Gout Foods To Avoid Here

Looking for gout foods to avoid? Do not look for specific foods like low purine foods. With the right pH balance, you can eat almost anything - but don't pig out.

If you are looking for purine information, please see the Purine Rich Foods Chart, but before consulting that table of food purine content, you should understand How Purines Affect Gout.

This table covers Pork Products. As you might expect, all these foods tend to make the body acidic.

Do not think of one food as better than another, and do not look for specific gout foods to avoid.

For a healthy diet, you need variety.

The best way to use this table is to choose a cut of meat that you like. Then select alkalizing foods from other tables to produce balanced meals.

Make sure your meal is alkaline overall. Then enjoy.

It is not wise to make a pig of yourself, but with the right approach, you can eat a reasonable portion of any meat if it's balanced with alkaline foods such as vegetables.

Eat sensibly, and there are no gout foods to avoid.

Please read my explanation of Potential Renal Acid Load (PRAL) for gout sufferers before you look at detailed food information.
