Gout Prevent
Posted: 03-27-06 05:08am

Having sex prevents men from getting gout. It seems that increased sexual activity reduces uric acid levels in fertile men.
Lemon juice prevents gout attacks by stimulating the formation of calcium carbonate in the body. Calcium carbonate neutralizes acids in the body, including uric acid that triggers gout attacks. After each meal drink the juice of one freshly squeezed lemon in a glass of lukewarm water. To get more juice out of the lemon, bring it to room temperature, then roll it around on
fish oil take 2 grams of fish oil capsules 2x a day to reduce the chances of gouty inflammation
vitamin c 1,000 mg per hour at the very outset of a gout attack, then reduce to 500-3,000 mg daily for maintenance. Vitamin c helps lower serum uric acid levels.
