Everything you need to know about gout, from how to identify the disease to the various treatments available, including essential dietary choices.
Gout is a form of arthritis caused by uric acid crystals in the body causing inflammation leading to pain in the joints. The NHS estimates that gout currently affects approximately 1.3 million people in the UK (or 2% of the population) and 14.8 million in Europe and yet very little has been published about gout and its treatment. While experts agree on how to treat gout, they debate the impact that food and lifestyle can have in its management. Long-term treatment of the condition requires a more comprehensive approach than drug therapy. Dr. Girnita shows that through a combination of nutrition and lifestyle in addition to some medications individuals can reduce the frequency and severity of attacks of gout.
The Complete Gout Management and Nutrition Guide is for both the newly diagnosed and long-term sufferers. In this book, you’ll find everything you need to know about gout, from how to identify the disease to the various treatments available. You’ll also learn about foods and their relationship with gout. You may know that certain foods can trigger a gout attack, but you may not be aware that eating other foods can help with controlling the disease. We’ve also included more than 100 recipes for nutritious, delicious, easy-to-prepare meals, plus meal plans for a month — putting you in the driver’s seat to manage your gout.
