Introduction:

A concentrated form of arthritis and rheumatism resulting in excess uric acid crystals collecting around a small joint, often the big toe. Excruciating painful, this condition is often caused by alcohol or an excessively acidic diet.

Nutritional Advice:

See arthritis and rheumatism sections for dietary advice.

Avoid coffee, tea, alcohol and concentrate on fruit, vegetables (non-acidic).

Moving body fluids via the kidneys will help, use home made barley water for this. Drink plenty of water.
