8 Easy Tips To Treat Gout

Gout is a bigger problem than we realize…

Is gout a real health problem?

You might think that gout is just a bit of pain in your big toe from drinking too much red wine. However, gout is actually a form of arthritis. It can affect your lifestyle quality. Luckily, there are some tips to treat gout.

How do I know if I have gout?

  • Sudden joint pain. It might start out as a light throbbing and increase to unbearable pain. Or you might wake up one morning with excruciating pain.
  • Tenderness in the joint. It may feel tender, warm to the touch, and look red or purple.
  • Stiffness in the joint. Your joint may feel stiff or may just not be moving like it should.

Why would I get gout?

It appears when there is too much uric acid in the body. This can cause a crystallization process around important joints.

What do these crystals do?

These crystals cause inflammation which can lead to severe pain in the joints.

How do I treat gout?

Gout is usually seen as a chronic issue. But with a few simple lifestyle changes you can limit the effects severely. Here are a few simple tips to treat gout:

  1. Avoid Trigger Foods: Alcohol, anchovies, sardines, organ meats, spinach, and legumes can increase your uric acid levels.
  2. Drink Enough Water: Water helps cleanse your system and balance uric acid levels. Aim for at least 1.5 liters a day.
  3. Get Rid of Excess Weight: Losing weight reduces the risk of gout attacks and joint pain. Avoid crash diets and opt for healthy habits, including healthy oils like avocado and olive oil.
  4. Rest During a Gout Attack: Sit down and rest your joints to avoid worsening inflammation.
  5. Avoid Certain Foods: Caffeine, alcohol, refined sugars, refined carbs, and processed foods increase acidity in the body.
  6. Eat Certain Foods in Moderation: Meat, fish, poultry, beans, oils, cheese, eggs, nuts, and potatoes provide essential nutrients but should be eaten in moderation.
  7. Include Certain Foods: These help keep pH levels balanced.
    • Fruits: Blueberries, strawberries, pears, apples, melons, raisins, dates, figs
    • Vegetables: Lettuce, broccoli, kale, eggplant, zucchini, cucumber, bell peppers, asparagus, mushrooms
  8. Manna pH Balance: An all-natural supplement that helps excrete excess uric acid for effective relief. Formulated from 5 ingredients with pH-balancing properties:
    • Eucalyptus Extract: Contains flavonoids and polyphenols with anti-inflammatory benefits.
    • Paw Paw Extract: Helps increase acid excretion via the kidneys.
    • Aloe Bitters: A strong anti-inflammatory and detoxifier that balances pH.
    • Turmeric: Contains curcumin, a natural anti-inflammatory for arthritis relief.

    Manna pH Balance helps with:

    • Relief of arthritis symptoms
    • The relief of gout
    • Relief of osteoarthritis
    • Balancing the pH of the body

Always Stay In Charge Of pH Levels

pH Balance – by Marthinus Opperman – May 16, 2025

Always Stay In Charge Of pH Levels

Most people don’t realize just how important it is to maintain a healthy pH balance. You should try to keep your pH levels alkaline-biased, as the cells in your body need this to survive. To simplify it, we can say that the cells in our body go through a constant process of dying and regenerating, but they need an alkaline environment to regenerate properly. So it is important to stay in charge of pH levels. It is also the body’s basic starting point for fighting most diseases and ailments. Why are high uric acid levels bad? Diseases thrive in an acidic body condition, which is the best environment for things like mold, fungus, yeast, bacteria, and viruses to grow and become stronger. Why does this happen? The problem is that blood cannot get oxygen and nutrients to the cells like it should when the pH is not balanced. The optimal pH for blood is 7.4, and this is where the most oxygen can be transported to the cells. When the cells are not properly oxygenated, it opens the door for bacteria, viruses, and mold to grow. If the pH level falls to acidic, the high acid levels in the body can start to damage the body tissue. In order to prevent this, the body will store the acid in fat cells. Usually, the body needs to create extra fat cells in order to store all the acid, which means, you put on some weight. However, this also means that when you get your pH levels balanced, it can help you lose weight. Another very bad side effect of high acid levels in the body is that it causes calcium levels to go down which can weaken the bone and cause several problems like brittle bones and teeth. How do we balance the pH in our bodies? Eat More Fruits and Veggies – Most fruits and veggies can help correct your pH balance. Steer clear of meat, dairy, and grains as they make your body acidic. Eat Less Meat – Eat limited amounts of chicken, pork, or lean beef – at most, one serving a day. Those types of meat have fewer purines than organ meats like liver and sweetbreads. Other meat products like gravies and meat-based broths are also high in purines. Follow a Healthy Eating Plan – Download the free Acid/Alkaline e-book to learn more about the foods which cause acidity and which foods can help you to become more alkaline. Limit Your Alcohol – Alcohol may raise your risk of a gout attack – especially if you have more than one drink a day – because it’s high in purines. Beer appears to be worse than other alcoholic drinks because it contains yeast. Moderate wine drinking doesn’t appear to raise your risk, though. Use Natural Supplements – The Manna PH Balance supplement helps to excrete excess uric acid from the body to prevent acid-related health problems. We strongly recommend a healthy, alkalizing diet and to take the Manna PH Balance to get fast relief of excess uric acid. This product helps to excrete excess uric acid from the body to give effective pain relief from gout symptoms and it can help to prevent arthritis. Manna pH Balance was specially formulated from just 5 ingredients, all that have pH balancing qualities. Eucalyptus Extract – The Flavonoids and Polyphenols from this natural Eucalyptus extract have Anti-Viral and Anti-Inflammatory properties, assisting in the relief and fighting of inflammation caused by high uric acid levels. Asimum triloba (Paw paw extract) – Pawpaw extract helps to increase acid excretion via the kidneys. Aloe Ferox gum resin (Aloe Bitters) – Aloe bitters is a strong anti-inflammatory substance which helps with the balancing of pH in the body and acts as an antibiotic, with strong detoxifying properties. Curcuma longa folia (Turmeric) – The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin. Because of its anti-inflammatory properties, it is a natural treatment for arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

How To Know When You Have Arthritis

pH Balance – by Marthinus Opperman – May 16, 2025

How To Know When You Have Arthritis

Arthritis can be a tricky thing. Especially when you don’t know you’ve got it… How to know when you have arthritis can be tough seeing that there are over 100 different forms of diseases and conditions that form part of this category. The main thing that makes them all fall under the arthritis umbrella is that they cause pain in the joints. So how do I know if I have arthritis..? Well, arthritis can only really be determined by visiting your doctor, since the symptoms can range very broadly. Your doctor will take various factors into account. These range from inspecting your family history all the way to doing a physical exam. The most common forms of arthritis… While it is still best to consult your doctor for a full examination, more often than not it might be one of three common types of arthritis. These can be identified by stiffness, pain, inflammation, and a decrease in range of motion in the joint. The 3 most common forms of arthritis are… Osteoarthritis (OA): This is the most common form of arthritis. It is labelled as a degenerative arthritis, which means that the cartilage between joints gets worn out over time. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA): This is more of an inflammatory arthritis. It usually affects the smaller joints such as those in the hands. More often than not, it affects the same joints on both sides of the body at the same time. Gout: Many people do not realise that gout is a form of arthritis. Gout is called a metabolic arthritis. This means it occurs when there is too much uric acid in the body. This leads to inflammation and pain in the joints. What can I do to stop arthritis? Spice It Up Spices like cayenne, cinnamon, garlic, ginger and turmeric have anti-inflammatory effects. Sprinkle to 1 teaspoon of your favourite spice onto four cups of popcorn. Popcorn is rich in polyphenols, which are antioxidants that combat inflammation. Tackle the root cause of pain As most arthritis conditions and gout are directly related to high levels of uric acid in the body, getting rid of it is the first step in stopping the roller coaster symptoms. Take a product like the  Manna pH Balance  to help the body excrete excess uric acid from the body to prevent further pain and inflammation.The Manna pH Balance supplement is probably the best gout relief, which you will ever come across. This product can help to excrete the excess uric acid from the body without any side effects. Serious gout sufferers testified that after 2 days their gout was gone and they could live pain-free.However, the Manna pH Balance may help to you to still eat as before, but without gout. Drinking more water each day will definitely help to alleviate uric acid accumulation.Manna pH Balance was specially formulated from just 5 ingredients, all that have pH balancing qualities.

What Is Arthritis, And How Do We Treat It?

pH Balance – by Marthinus Opperman – May 16, 2025

What Is Arthritis, And How Do We Treat It?

Arthritis is not something we would wish on our worst enemies, but in order to treat it, we first have to understand what it is… Time to learn all about what exactly arthritis is and how to treat it. What exactly is Arthritis? In short, arthritis is a general term that describes inflammation in joints. The inflammation is caused by a build-up of uric acid in the body, which accumulates and forms crystals around the joints. Some common types of arthritis associated with inflammation include: Rheumatoid arthritis Psoriatic arthritis Gout Osteoarthritis Not that osteoarthritis is NOT associated with inflammation, it is caused by damage to the joint and CANNOT be treated in the same way as the types of arthritis caused by inflammation. What Are the Symptoms of arthritis? The symptoms of inflammation include: Redness of the inflamed area Joint swelling Loss of joint function Joint stiffness Joint pain What Causes arthritis? When inflammation occurs, chemicals from the body are released into the blood or affected tissues. This release of chemicals increases the blood flow to the area of injury or infection and may result in redness and warmth. Some of the chemicals cause a leak of fluid into the tissues, resulting in swelling. This process may stimulate nerves and cause pain. What Are the Results of Joint Inflammation? Increased blood flow and release of these chemicals attract white blood cells to the sites of inflammation. The increased number of cells and inflammatory substances within the joint can cause irritation, wearing down of cartilage (cushions at the end of bones), and swelling of the joint lining (synovium). How can you treat arthritis naturally? 1. Drink More Water Changing your diet may help you manage chronic gout and help symptoms such as joint pain. Start by drinking more water, because dehydration might trigger gout attacks. One study showed that men who drank five to eight glasses of water in a 24-hour period had a 40% lower risk of gout attacks. But avoid sugary sodas, which may raise your risk. 2. Find a Diet That Works for You Being overweight raises your risk of gout. So eat a balanced diet and lose excess weight it can help your symptoms. Talk with your doctor about making diet changes. You may find that you can eat some foods without having a gout attack. Other foods may cause your body to react or may make your gout worse, though. 3. Avoid Flare-Up Foods Weight loss is the most effective way to manage gout, but you also may benefit from eating a low-purine diet. Purines are found naturally in many foods. Your body breaks them down into uric acid. Too much uric acid in your blood causes gout. Some foods, like organ meats, sardines, and anchovies, are high in purines and can cause flare-ups. The good news is that many healthy options, like beans, lentils, and asparagus, have fewer purines. Talk to your doctor about what you can safely eat. 4. Eat Plenty of Fruits Fruits provide good, fibre-filled carbohydrates and other nutrients that can help you maintain a balanced diet and healthy weight. Plus, they tend to have very few purines. Fruits high in vitamin C, like tangerines and oranges, may help prevent gout attacks. Some research shows that cherries or cherry juice can offer relief from gout. Ask your doctor if you should add cherries to your diet. 5. Choose the Right Carbs If you follow diets that are low-carb or high in protein or fat, you may get too many purines. Processed carbohydrates like white bread and white-flour pasta have very few purines but they can lead to weight gain. Instead, focus on healthy carbs with high fibre such as oats, sweet potatoes, beans, and vegetables. 6. Essential Fats Eat more foods rich in essential fatty acids, including cold-water fish like tuna and salmon, flaxseed and other seeds, and nuts. Fatty acids may help lower inflammation. Use fatty acid-rich oil, such as olive oil, for cooking and for dressing salads. And try to cut back on, or get rid of, any trans-fats in your diet. 7. Limit Your Alcohol Alcohol may raise your risk of a gout attack especially if you have more than one drink a day because it’s high in purines. Beer appears to be worse than other alcoholic drinks because it contains yeast. Moderate wine drinking doesn’t appear to raise your risk, though. 8. Use Caffeine with Caution Moderate coffee drinking is thought to be OK for people with gout. And in some people who drink coffee regularly, drinking four or more cups a day may even lower the risk of gout attacks. But caffeinated drinks may raise uric acid levels in some people who drink them just occasionally. 9. Eat Less Meat Eat limited amounts of chicken, pork, or lean beef at most, one serving a day. Those types of meat have fewer purines than organ meats like liver and sweetbreads. Other meat products like gravies and meat-based broths are also high in purines. 10. Enjoy Low-fat Dairy Dairy products were once off-limits to people with gout because they’re made from animal proteins. But they’re actually low in purines and dairy purines don’t seem to cause gout. Low-fat milk and low-fat dairy may even lower your risk of gout by more than 40%. During a gout attack, low-fat dairy products may help you get rid of extra uric acid through your urine. 11. Use Manna pH Balance As most arthritis conditions and gout are directly related to high levels of uric acid in the body, getting rid of it is the first step in stopping the roller coaster symptoms. Take a product like the Manna PH Balance to help the body excrete excess uric acid from the body to prevent further pain and inflammation.

10 Natural Ways To Lower Uric Acid

pH Balance – by Marthinus Opperman – May 16, 2025

10 Natural Ways To Lower Uric Acid

Uric acid is a chemical made by your body. When your body breaks down purines (a type of protein found in many foods), it produces uric acid. Uric acid is meant to be a waste product. It dissolves in your bloodstream, flows through your kidneys, and leaves your body when you urinate. A normal uric acid level is under 6.8 mg/dL, but if your body can’t remove uric acid fast enough, it will accumulate in your blood. A high uric acid level, is known as hyperuricemia and can cause gout. Gout, a type of arthritis, causes sharp pains, swelling, and inflammation in joints. There are many reasons why some people accumulate uric acid in their blood Some of these are: diet genetics obesity Certain health disorders can also lead to high uric acid levels: kidney disease diabetes mellitus hypothyroidism some types of cancers or chemotherapy psoriasis According to research, uric acid levels can rise over an extended time period before a person is diagnosed with gout. Uric acid levels can be elevated ten to 15 years before clinical manifestations of gout. It is best to start managing your uric acid levels and prevent the onset of gout. Here are 10 natural ways to lower uric acid: 1. Avoid high-purine foods Purine-rich foods will raise your uric acid levels. Foods high in purines are: Beer and grain liquors (like vodka and whiskey) Red meat, lamb, and pork Organ meats, such as liver Seafood, especially shellfish Luckily, there are many foods you can enjoy on a low-purine diet. You can eat healthily and enjoy your food. 2. Control your sugar intake When your body breaks down fructose, it releases purines and increases uric acid levels. It’s best to limit the number of fruits you eat as well as foods with added sugars. Some sugars that are usually added to food include table sugar, corn syrup, and high fructose corn syrup. It’s not only fruits and added sugars to watch out for. Sugary drinks can also increase uric acid levels. Your body absorbs the sugar in soda and fruit juices quickly because these drinks don’t contain any fibre or other nutrients. Research has shown that the fast absorption of these sugars, spikes blood sugar levels and this leads to an increase in uric acid levels. 3. Avoid alcohol Alcoholic drinks can raise your uric acid levels. Alcoholic drinks like beer, are especially problematic as they are high in purines. Alcohol also inhibits the secretion of uric acid. Your body converts alcohol to lactic acid which stops the body from urinating away uric acid. 4. Drink Coffee Coffee may lower the rate of uric acid production and increase the rate at which your body excretes uric acid. 5. Lose weight gradually Losing weight alone can reduce uric acid in your bloodstream but be weary of crash dieting. It is important to lose weight gradually as crash dieting and going without food for long periods of time increases your uric acid levels. 6. Regulate your blood sugar levels Although there is not enough research to substantiate the link between high blood sugar levels and hyperuricemia, it does seem that people with high blood sugar levels are at risk of developing hyperuricemia. If you can regulate your blood sugar levels, you could possibly reduce the amount or uric acid in your blood. 7. Eat more fibre Eating food with lots of fibre will help level out your uric acid levels. It will also help regulate your blood sugar levels. You should try to eat between 22 and 34 grams of fibre each day. 8. Increase your vitamin C intake Vitamin C might lower your uric acid levels. Some research has shown that vitamin C aids your kidneys in removing uric acid. Studies about the connection between vitamin C and uric acid are still relatively new, and no strong conclusions can be drawn yet. It is recommended that adults take between 75 to 120 mg of vitamin C every day. 9. Eat cherries Although the research is relatively new, it does seem that cherries help reduce uric acid levels. They are also rich in fibre and vitamin C, making them an excellent snack choice for those who want to keep their uric acid levels in control. 10. Don’t take certain medications Be aware that some medications can cause uric acid to accumulate in your blood. These include: aspirin diuretics vitamin B-3 (niacin) immune-suppressing drugs like cyclosporine and tacrolimus pyrazinamide, a drug that treats tuberculosis levodopa, a drug that treats Parkinson’s disease beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, and other blood pressure medications Takeaway There’s a myriad of things you can do to lower your uric acid levels naturally and it is best to begin as soon as possible. These steps show you what lifestyle changes you need to make and these changes can help prevent the onset of gout. If you do have gout, a combination of medication and lifestyle changes could prevent gout attacks. Naturally reducing uric acid levels will help keep the pain of gout at bay.

Types of Arthritis, Their Causes and Treatment

Arthritis is an inflammation of the joints When you have arthritis you might feel pain, aching, stiffness, and swelling in and around one or more joints. There are more than 100 different types of arthritis and various treatments for the condition. The most common type is osteoarthritis (OA). Other common types include rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and gout. Below you can read more about arthritis categories, as well as what causes joint inflammation and common treatments. Arthritis categories The types of arthritis can be divided in the following categories: Inflammatory arthritis Inflammation happens when your body fights against a virus or harmful bacteria or responds to an injury, like a burn. But people with inflammatory arthritis experience unexplainable inflammation in their joints. This inflammation happens without any threat being present in your body and it can damage your joints, resulting in pain, swelling and stiffness. Examples of inflammatory arthritis include: RA reactive arthritis ankylosing spondylitis psoriatic arthritis Degenerative or mechanical arthritis This kind of arthritis largely damages the cartilage that covers the end of the bones. Degenerative or mechanical arthritis causes your cartilage to become thinner and rougher making it difficult for your joints to move smoothly. Your body tries to solve this problem by remodelling your bones. This results in undesirable bony growths to develop, called osteophytes. The joint can become misshapen. This condition is called osteoarthritis (OA). Osteoarthritis can also happen because of damage to joints – like suffering from a fracture or because of inflammation. Connective tissue disease (CTD) Connective tissue can be found throughout your body and consists of tendons, ligaments, and cartridge. They are what keep your body together. CTD causes pain and inflammation in your joints. It can also cause inflammation in other tissues like the skin, muscles, lungs, and kidneys. Examples of CTD include: SLE, or lupus scleroderma, or systemic sclerosis dermatomyositis Sjogren’s Infectious arthritis A virus, bacteria or fungus can cause joint inflammation. This inflammation might be temporary but can also become chronic if proper treatment is not administered. Organisms can inflame your joints through: Food poisoning – salmonella and shigella Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) – chlamydia and gonorrhea Blood-to-blood infection – hepatitis C Metabolic arthritis Uric acid is a chemical made by your body. When your body breaks down purines (a type of protein found in many foods), it produces uric acid. Uric acid is meant to be a waste product. It dissolves in your bloodstream, flows through your kidneys, and leaves your body when you urinate. A normal uric acid level is under 6.8 mg/dL, but if your body can’t remove uric acid fast enough, it will accumulate in your blood. A high uric acid level is known as hyperuricemia and can cause gout. Gout, a type of arthritis, causes sharp pains, swelling, and inflammation in joints. This pain happens suddenly and then dissipates – it is called a gout attack. Childhood arthritis Arthritis in childhood may be attributed to immune system problems and can damage joints permanently. The most widespread type of childhood arthritis is juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Septic arthritis Septic arthritis commonly affects your knees and hips and is caused by bacteria and fungal infections. Bacteria such as Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, or Neisseria gonorrhoeae cause most cases of acute septic arthritis. Arthritis causes There is no single cause of arthritis and different factors play a role in the development of the disease. Arthritis can be caused by: Wear and tear of a joint from overuse Age (OA is most common in adults over age 50) Injuries Obesity Autoimmune disorders Genes or family history Muscle weakness Treatment Treatment of arthritis differs depending on the type of arthritis you have. Treatment may include: Medication and supplements Various medications to reduce inflammation and pain are prescribed for people suffering from arthritis. There is not a lot of clinical data to show how effective supplements are in treating arthritis but avocado and soybean unsaponifiables (ASU) may help OA symptoms. If you want to reduce inflammation in RA then fish oil and turmeric supplements may be beneficial. Some people suffering from arthritis have also mentioned that pain and inflammation are reduced by taking some of the following supplements: Devil’s claw Boswellia Chamomile Turmeric Ginger Physical therapy It is important to strengthen the muscles around your joints, regular physical activity will help with this. Your physical therapist will also give you exercises to do at home to build muscle strength and flexibility. Lifestyle changes There are numerous lifestyle changes you can make to help with arthritis, these include: Weight loss Losing excess weight can reduce the risk of developing OA and can also mitigate some of the symptoms. Exercise If you want to lose weight through exercising opt for joint-friendly exercise like swimming. Regular exercise will also keep your joints flexible. Diet Eating foods with lots of antioxidants will, such as fruits and vegetables will help reduce inflammation. Avoid eating processed foods as they might worsen joint inflammation. Takeaway Take care of your joints properly. With OA being the most common type of arthritis, you can keep your joints healthy by losing weight and exercising. When your joints are inflamed it is important to eat the right food. A diet rich in antioxidants will help fight joint inflammation. Keep your joints healthy to avoid the pain of arthritis.

Top 10 Foods to Steer Clear of if You Have Gout

A Guide to Dietary Triggers That Increase Uric Acid Levels Gout, a form of arthritis, occurs when uric acid builds up in the bloodstream and forms painful crystals in joints, leading to inflammation, swelling, and discomfort. If you suffer from gout, managing your diet is essential to control symptoms and prevent flare-ups. Some foods are known to increase uric acid levels, making gout worse. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the top 10 foods to avoid if you’re looking to maintain balanced pH levels and reduce gout symptoms. 1. Red Meat Beef, lamb, and pork are high in purines, which the body converts into uric acid. Regular consumption of these meats can trigger gout flare-ups. Opt for plant-based protein or leaner meats like chicken in moderation. 2. Organ Meats Liver, kidneys, and sweetbreads are extremely high in purines. Though nutrient-dense, they can cause a surge in uric acid levels and should be avoided entirely by those managing gout. 3. Seafood Certain fish and shellfish—such as anchovies, sardines, trout, and shrimp—contain high purine levels. Eating them can increase the risk of gout attacks. If seafood is essential to your diet, try low-purine options like salmon. 4. Alcohol Beer and spirits are known gout triggers. They disrupt the body’s ability to eliminate uric acid, causing it to build up. While wine may have a lesser effect, moderation is still essential. 5. Sugary Drinks and Soda Fructose in sugary beverages can lead to elevated uric acid levels. Regular consumption of soft drinks, fruit juices, or energy drinks may worsen gout symptoms. Choose water or herbal teas instead to support hydration and pH balance. 6. Refined Carbohydrates White bread, pastries, and other processed carbohydrates can increase insulin resistance, leading to higher uric acid levels. Switch to whole grains like oats or quinoa to maintain stable blood sugar levels. 7. Processed Foods and Fast Food These foods often contain trans fats, excessive salt, and artificial ingredients that contribute to inflammation and may worsen gout. A healthier diet with whole, unprocessed foods is ideal. 8. High-Fat Dairy Products Full-fat milk, cheese, and butter can elevate uric acid production. Swap these for low-fat dairy alternatives, which may help reduce the risk of gout attacks. 9. Asparagus and Mushrooms Although vegetables are generally good for gout, asparagus, mushrooms, and spinach contain higher purine levels compared to other plant foods. It’s best to limit these if you notice a pattern of flare-ups. 10. Foods Rich in Added Sugar Cakes, cookies, and other sugary treats can trigger inflammation and increase uric acid production. Keeping sugar intake low helps maintain overall health and supports pH balance. Support Your Body with Manna pH Balance Managing pH levels is key in reducing uric acid and preventing gout flare-ups. One of the best ways to maintain this balance is with Manna pH Balance. Formulated with natural ingredients like calcium, magnesium, and potassium, this supplement helps neutralize excess acidity, supporting joint health and alleviating inflammation. Promoting a more alkaline environment in the body makes it easier to keep uric acid levels under control and reduce the risk of painful flare-ups. Conclusion Managing gout isn’t just about avoiding triggers but also adopting a healthier, more balanced lifestyle. You can reduce the frequency and severity of gout attacks by eliminating or minimizing these high-purine and inflammatory foods. At Manna Health, we provide products that promote balanced pH levels to help you feel your best every day. Explore our range of supplements designed to support pH balance and overall health.

Gout Attacks can be Prevented Through Drinking Water

pH Balance – by Freda Coetzee – May 16, 2025

Gout Attacks can be Prevented Through Drinking Water

Gout is a type of arthritis that occurs when there is too much uric acid in the blood, leading to the formation of urate crystals around joints, causing intense pain and inflammation. While medication and dietary changes are commonly recommended for managing gout, the role of hydration, particularly through drinking water, is often overlooked. If you don’t drink enough water, your body will become dehydrated and your blood will thicken. As the blood thickens, the concentration of uric acid in the blood rises, making it easier to trigger a gout attack. This article explores how staying hydrated by drinking water can be a simple yet effective strategy in preventing gout attacks. Understanding Gout and Hydration Uric acid is a natural waste product that forms when the body breaks down purines, substances found in certain foods and drinks. Normally, uric acid dissolves in the blood and passes through the kidneys into the urine. However, when there’s an excess of uric acid or the kidneys can’t efficiently remove the uric acid, urate crystals accumulate in the joints, causing gout. Avoid Food High in Purine Sugars and fruit high in fructose such as apples, pears, mangoes, figs, watermelon, and dried fruit Sugar-sweetened beverages Processed foods Red meat and organ meat, like liver and kidney meat Certain fish and shellfish Alcohol Yeasts Drinking water can wash out excess uric acid from the body The Role of Water: Proper hydration is crucial for maintaining overall health, and it’s particularly important for people prone to gout. Here’s how water helps in gout prevention: Diluting Uric Acid: Drinking plenty of water helps dilute uric acid in the blood, making it easier for the kidneys to flush it out through urine. This reduces the likelihood of urate crystal formation in the joints. Promoting Kidney Function: Adequate water intake supports kidney function by enhancing urine production. When you’re well-hydrated, your kidneys are more efficient in filtering waste products, including uric acid. Preventing Crystallization: Dehydration can lead to higher concentrations of uric acid in the blood, making it more likely for crystals to form. By staying hydrated, you can reduce the risk of urate crystal deposition in the joints. How much water to drink: The amount of water needed varies from person to person depending on factors like age, weight, climate, and activity level. However, a general guideline is to aim for around 8-10 glasses (about 2-2.5 liters) of water per day. This amount can help maintain adequate hydration and support kidney function. Tips for Increasing Water Intake: Carry a reusable water bottle and sip throughout the day. Set reminders on your phone to drink water regularly. Add a few slices of cucumber or lemon to the water. Other Considerations: While water is a key factor in gout prevention, it’s also important to make other dietary and lifestyle adjustments: Limit intake of high-purine foods such as red meat, organ meats, and certain seafood like tuna. Follow the guidelines in the FREE Manna Acid & Alkaline Ebook. Avoid excessive alcohol consumption, especially beer and spirits high in purines. Maintain a healthy weight, as obesity is linked to higher uric acid levels. Include hydrating foods (water-rich foods) in your diet like: Cucumber (96.73% water) Lettuce (95.64% water) Celery (95.43% water) Tomatoes (94.52% water) Take the Manna pH Balance In a nutshell: Incorporating adequate water intake into your daily routine is a simple yet powerful way to reduce the risk of gout attacks. By staying hydrated, you can help your body regulate uric acid levels more effectively and support overall kidney health. Combine this with a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle for optimal gout prevention and management.

7 Gout Symptoms To Watch Out For

7 Gout Symptoms To Watch Out For

Gout is not always easy to identify. It can help if you provide your doctor with details about your symptoms so that you can get the right treatment. Here are seven gout symptoms to look out for. Gout, a type of arthritis, causes sharp pains, swelling, and inflammation in joints. People suffering from gout, experience unforeseen and painful “attacks”. These flare-ups happen when there is too much uric acid in your blood. Uric acid is a waste product made by your body when it digests food. When your uric acid levels are high, crystals amass in your joints. This triggers intense pain. Gout is highly treatable but some symptoms can be quite subtle. Gout is also difficult to diagnose as the symptoms are similar to that of other ailments. That’s why it is important to let up on faint symptoms so that you can get proper treatment and keep the pain at bay. Be on the lookout for these gout symptoms: Pain in your big toe The most common area in your body affected by gout, is your big toe. If you have an excess amount of uric acid in your blood, it can crystalize and move to your big toe. These crystals can leave your big toe feeling warm and cause agonizing pain. Joint pain Gout can affect any joint in your body – your knees, elbows, ankles and wrists are all at risk. Sometimes people experience pain in only one joint but often multiple joints are affected. About 25 percent of gout patients experience pain in more than one joint at a time. If you do experience pain in multiple joints, it can be especially hard to diagnose as it can be confused with rheumatoid arthritis which also affects multiple joints. Gout attacks at night Gout attacks are twice as likely to strike while you’re asleep (between midnight and 8 a.m.). Your body temperature will be lower and you’ll be less hydrated in the middle of the night which could lead to a build-up of uric acid in your blood. Flareups Gout-related pain flares up fast. You might go to bed feeling fine and then be woken up by excruciating joint pain in the middle of the night. The pattern, of having periods of no joint pain disrupted by flareups, is highly suggestive of gout. These flareups are also known as gout attacks. After the symptoms start, it typically takes about 12 to 24 hours for the pain in the joint to peak but joints can continue to feel uncomfortable for a few days or even weeks. Without treatment these attacks can become more frequent and the pain more severe. Fatigue Gout attacks can leave you feeling tired. Some people experience muscle aches and fever. It might feel like all your energy is depleted and your body is recovering from the flu. Tophi When you have a lot of crystals in your joints, they will clump together and form lumps and bumps around your joints. These clumps of crystals are called tophi. Tophi is usually present in chronic gout patients and not permanent deformities. With treatment they can disappear. Kidney stones Excess uric acid can also build up in your urinary tract and when it crystalizes you will have kidney stones. Kidney stones are not really a symptom of gout but a complication. If you do develop kidney stones, you should ask your doctor to check your uric acid levels. Takeaway Gout is not easy to identify so watching out for the symptoms can help you get the proper treatment. While some symptoms, like pain in your big toe and flareups, are highly suggestive of gout, others are more subtle. You want to get treatment as soon as possible if you have gout so that you can minimise the amount and intensity of gout attacks. Learn the natural solution to gout…

Gout Treatment

When gout goes untreated, it can possibly lead to a world of discomfort and pain… But the good news is that it does not necessarily have to be this way… People who have gout will tell you how uncomfortable and sore their joints become when their gout flares up. But what most gout sufferers don’t know is that they can treat it in a completely natural manner. What is gout? To put it very simply, gout is inflammation caused by too much uric acid in the body. This inflammation usually affects the joints the most, causing “crystals” to build around the joints which cause the immense pain any gout sufferer knows all too well. What are the symptoms of gout? Most of the time, the symptoms of gout are very sudden and painful. It often occurs in the middle of the night and can be so painful that it wakes you from your sleep. Symptoms include: Joint pain The most common place where gout is found is in the joint at the base of the big toe. It can however occur in many other places such as the rest of the feet, ankles, knees, hands and fingers, and of course the joints located in the wrists. It has been found that the pain is at its worst round about 12 to 24 hours after it has first started. Constant discomfort After the worst pain has gone away, discomfort is still felt in the joints. This discomfort might be present for a few days or sometimes even a few weeks. Gout that appears after the initial attack is likely to last longer and be more widely spread than the first time. Redness and inflammation The involved joints become swollen sensitive and red. What complications can gout lead to? Gout can lead to more severe conditions, for example: Recurrent gout Some people may never experience any symptoms of gout after the first time, whereas others may suffer from the effects of it several times per year. People with recurrent gout can prevent gout attacks from returning by using medication. Advanced gout Gout that is left untreated can cause urate crystal deposits to form underneath the skin in nodules referred to as “tophi”. Tophi can develop in a variety of parts such as your fingers, hands, feet, elbows or Achilles tendons. Tophi usually are not painful, but during gout attacks, they become sensitive and swollen. Kidney stones People with gout may experience urate crystals forming in the urinary tract, resulting in kidney stones. The risk of developing kidney stones can be reduced by using the correct medication. How is gout treated? The easy option would be to just take a few Manna pH Balance capsules and continue with your lifestyle, here are a few tips to take it even further… With the right combination of lifestyle changes, eating certain foods, as well as avoiding certain things, gout does not have to be a problem. Drink More Water Changing your diet may help you manage chronic gout and help symptoms such as joint pain. Start by drinking more water, because dehydration might trigger gout attacks. Find a Diet That Works for You Being overweight raises your risk of gout. So eat a balanced diet and lose excess weight it can help your symptoms. Avoid Flare-Up Foods Weight loss is the most effective way to manage gout, but you also may benefit from eating a low-purine diet. Some foods, like organ meats, sardines, and anchovies, are high in purines and can cause flare-ups. Eat Plenty of Fruits Fruits high in vitamin C, like tangerines and oranges, may help prevent gout attacks. Some research shows that cherries or cherry juice can offer relief from gout. Choose the Right Carbs Processed carbohydrates like white bread and white-flour pasta have very few purines but can lead to weight gain. Instead, focus on healthy carbs with high fiber such as oats, sweet potatoes, beans, and vegetables. Essential Fats Eat more foods rich in essential fatty acids, including cold-water fish, flaxseed, seeds, and nuts. Use fatty acid-rich oil, such as olive oil, and avoid trans-fats. Limit Your Alcohol Alcohol may raise your risk of a gout attack, especially beer due to yeast content. Use Caffeine with Caution Moderate coffee drinking is usually fine. In regular drinkers, 4 or more cups a day may reduce risk. But in occasional users, it might raise uric acid levels. Eat Less Meat Eat limited amounts of chicken, pork, or lean beef—no more than one serving a day. Avoid organ meats and meat-based broths. Enjoy Low-fat Dairy Low-fat milk and dairy may lower your risk of gout and help the body get rid of uric acid. You Can't Eliminate Purines Some high-purine foods don’t trigger gout. Foods like peas, beans, mushrooms, cauliflower, and spinach may not be linked to attacks. Manna pH Balance Manna pH Balance offers natural, effective relief from gout and gout symptoms.

The Symptoms Of A Gout Attack

pH Balance – by Freda Coetzee – May 16, 2025

The Symptoms Of A Gout Attack

Sometimes we have a gout attack without even realizing it. This is usually because we do not know what the different symptoms of gout are. We probably all think of a throbbing big toe straight away – but there is more to gout than just that. But first, let’s just quickly recap what exactly gout is… What is gout? To put it very simply, gout is inflammation caused by too much uric acid in the body. This inflammation usually affects the joints the most, causing “crystals” to build around the joints which cause the immense pain any gout sufferer knows all too well. Let’s take a look at the different symptoms of gout and how they affect our bodies, movement, and daily lives… 1. Joint Pain The most well-known sign of gout is intense pain in the joints. In most cases, the first attack occurs with sharp aches in the big toe. However, the pain could also occur in the feet, ankles, hands, wrists, elbows, or knees. It can also affect the shoulders, but this is not very common. Oftentimes gout attacks occur in the middle of the night, with the pain lasting anywhere between 4 and 12 hours. Once the pain goes away, there is a chance that it can happen again. But in the beginning, the attacks may only happen once every few months, but if it is not treated it may become more and more regular and the pain may become worse. 2. Redness and Swelling Gout is usually accompanied by redness and swelling in the area that surrounds the joint. While this might not be as painful as the joint itself, it can still cause some serious discomfort. The swelling and redness often take longer to go away than the actual pain caused by the gout attack. 3. Tenderness Another common symptom is extreme tenderness in the affected joint. Sometimes the skin gets so sensitive that the slightest contact, even with the bed sheets, causes intense discomfort. Luckily, extreme tenderness usually goes away when the pain subsides. If you experience this tenderness, avoid tight or restrictive clothing until the attack and tenderness have passed. 4. Hot feeling The swollen joint area can become very warm. Many gout sufferers experience radiating heat in the area around the joint. It can be described as a localized hot flash, whereby the skin seems to be heating up from within. 5. A constant dull ache In some cases, gout sufferers experience a dull ache rather than a sharp pain. This usually occurs in people who suffer from chronic gout. In these cases, there are not random gout attacks, but rather a continual ache in one or more joints. Patients with chronic gout may be able to go about their daily routines with these aches. However, chronic gout is often misdiagnosed as other forms of arthritis, which means it may not be getting the most effective treatment possible. 6. Discomfort long after the attack Even after a gout attack has subsided, you may still feel discomfort and low-intensity aches for days or even weeks afterwards. When gout attacks happen more often, the discomfort also usually worsens and lingers for longer. That is why it is important to start taking measures against gout after the first attack. 7. Stiffness of Joints The joints affected by gout become stiff and difficult to move after a gout attack. This can be due to swelling, tenderness, and aching. All of this can cause some serious discomfort which makes it even more difficult to use the joint effectively. If gout is not treated, the affected joints may become stiff and hard to move almost permanently, which can hinder mobility and comfort. 8. Peeling of the Skin Sometimes when recovering from a gout attack the skin of the affected area begins peeling. This usually occurs in cases where swelling and tenderness was severe. You may experience slight itching during this, however, the impulse to scratch it needs to be resisted as this may worsen the peeling. The peeling stops in about a couple of days at most, depending upon which joint is affected and how severe the attack has been. 9. Tophi Formation In cases where gout remains untreated over a long period, tophi-formation takes place in the joint area. Tophi are basically chalky formations of uric acid that develop in the soft tissue of a gout-prone joint. These tophi are found very close to the surface of the skin with the overlying layer often turning red. If untreated, tophi formation can spread and affect the cartilage and cause substantial damage. So what can I do to treat or prevent gout attacks? The best way to treat gout attacks and prevent them from coming back is by making smart lifestyle changes and using good natural supplements. So how do we do this? Eat the right food Try to reduce red meat, sugar, starches and sugary drinks. Follow the guidelines in the FREE Manna Acid & Alkaline Ebook. Stay hydrated Make sure to drink at least 2 litres of purified water per day. Reduce alcohol consumption Alcohol is one of the big causes of increased uric acid levels in the body. Try to only drink alcohol on weekends, and even then only 2 drinks per day. Take the Manna pH Balance The natural ingredients in this supplement can help to manage gout by excreting excess uric acid from the body for fast, effective relief of symptoms related to high uric acid levels. Manna pH Balance helps to increase the rate of acid excretion, thus treating gout by preventing further inflammation of the joints. The product also assists kidney blood flow rate. The different ingredients work in a synergistic manner to balance the pH of the human body.

Can Gout Be Reversed?

pH Balance – by Freda Coetzee – May 16, 2025

Can Gout Be Reversed?

Gout is one of the most common forms of arthritis. But what is it exactly? In order to better treat it, we first have to understand what it is… What is Arthritis? Some, but not all types of arthritis, are the result of misdirected inflammation. Arthritis is a general term that describes inflammation in joints. Some types of arthritis associated with inflammation include: Rheumatoid arthritis Psoriatic arthritis Gouty arthritis Systemic lupus erythematosus The most common form of arthritis called osteoarthritis (also known as degenerative arthritis) is a bit of a misnomer. It is not believed that inflammation plays a major role in osteoarthritis. Other painful conditions of the joints and musculoskeletal system that are not associated with inflammation include fibromyalgia, muscular low back pain, and muscular neck pain. What Are the Symptoms of Inflammation? The symptoms of inflammation include: Redness Joint swelling Joint pain Joint stiffness Loss of joint function Often, only a few of these symptoms are present. Inflammation may also be associated with general "flu"-like symptoms including: Fever Chills Fatigue/loss of energy Headaches Loss of appetite Muscle stiffness What Causes the Symptoms of Inflammation? When inflammation occurs, chemicals from the body are released into the blood or affected tissues. This release of chemicals increases the blood flow to the area of injury or infection and may result in redness and warmth. Some of the chemicals cause a leak of fluid into the tissues, resulting in swelling. This process may stimulate nerves and cause pain. What Are the Results of Joint Inflammation? Increased blood flow and release of these chemicals attract white blood cells to the sites of inflammation. The increased number of cells and inflammatory substances within the joint can cause irritation, wearing down of cartilage (cushions at the end of bones), and swelling of the joint lining (synovium). Can Gout Be Reversed? In short, yes. And it is often far easier than most people think. With the right supplement, like the Manna pH Balance, it is extremely easy. And with the right lifestyle, it can be kept away for good. How to treat gout and arthritis naturally: 1. Eat the right food Try to reduce red meat, sugar, starches, and sugary drinks. Follow the guidelines in the FREE Manna Acid & Alkaline Ebook. 2. Stay hydrated Make sure to drink at least 2 litres of purified water per day. 3.

Best Foods To Ward Off Gout

Gout, a type of arthritis, can cause sharp pains in your joints. Eating the right foods can help people with gout ward off sudden and painful gout “attacks”. Take the offense by firstly, excluding certain foods from your diet and secondly, by eating more food that will help keep the pain at bay. What is gout? Gout, a type of arthritis, causes sharp pains, swelling, and inflammation in joints. People suffering from gout, experience unforeseen and painful “attacks”. These attacks happen when there is too much uric acid in your blood. Uric acid is a waste product made by your body when it digests food. When your uric acid levels are high, crystals amass in your joints. This triggers intense pain. Learn how to treat gout… The connection between gout and diet Foods high in purines raise uric acid levels in your body. Purines are naturally found in many foods. When your body digests purines it produces uric acid as a by-product. The body can naturally rid itself of uric acid but people who have gout, struggle to do so. Fortunately, you can fend off gout attacks by taking medication and following a low-purine diet. A diet that restricts foods that is high in purines will help keep uric acid levels in check. Interestingly, there are some exceptions as vegetables are high in purines but do not raise your uric acid levels. Foods with high fructose levels and sugar-sweetened beverages do not have high purine levels but can increase uric acid in your body. Foods to avoid if you have gout To avoid gout attacks, avoid high-purine foods. These are foods that contain more than 200 mg of purines per 100 grams. You should also avoid high-fructose foods. You should stay away from these types of food: Beer and grain liquors (like vodka and whiskey) Red meat, lamb, and pork Organ meats such as liver, kidneys, and glandular meats like the thymus or pancreas Seafood, especially shellfish like shrimp, lobster, mussels, anchovies, and sardines High-fructose products like soda and some juices, cereal, ice cream, candy, and fast food Additionally, refined carbs like white bread, cakes, and cookies are low in nutrients and may raise your uric acid levels. It is best to avoid refined carbs. Best foods to enjoy if you have gout Luckily there are plenty of low-purine foods you can enjoy. Your meals can still be flavourful and varied. Foods are considered low-purine when they have less than 100 mg of purines per 100 grams. You’ll want to go for low-purine options like: Low-fat and non-dairy fat products, such as yogurt and skim milk Fresh fruits: All fruits can be eaten and cherries are especially recommended as they help remove acidic acid from the body. Nuts, peanut butter, and grains Fat and oil Potatoes, rice, bread, and pasta Eggs (in moderation) Meats like fish, chicken, and red meat are fine in moderation. Vegetables: You may see veggies like spinach and asparagus on the high-purine list, but studies show they don’t raise your risk of gout or gout attacks. Beverages: Coffee, tea and green tea. Additionally, a vitamin C supplement might lower your uric acid levels. Some research has shown that vitamin C aids your kidneys in removing uric acid. Studies about the effect of vitamin C on gout are still relatively new, and no strong conclusions can be drawn yet. Takeaway An excess amount of uric acid causes gout attacks. Uric acid is a waste product produced when your body digests purines. To curb gout attacks, you should avoid eating high-purine foods. Although there are lots of food that are high in purines, low-purine meals can still be flavourful and varied.

Causes Of Gout And Effective Treatment

Gout is a type of arthritis that arises when there is too much uric acid in your body. But what causes this and how can Gout be treated? In the past, gout has been believed to be caused by eating too much red meat and seafood, and consuming too much alcohol. Thus, the treatment for the gout was to eliminate food that contained higher amounts of purine. This eliminated many types of food and limited the food that one could still eat. However, recent studies have shown that not all foods that contain purine cause gout. These studies have also shown that there are certain foods that help manage the uric acid levels in the body, and in doing so, preventing or treating gout. The Gout Diet The goal will be to maintain the correct levels of chemicals in the body to ensure all levels are in balance, as well as maintaining a good, healthy body weight. Weight loss: Losing weight helps lower the body’s uric acid levels even before a low-purine diet has been followed. Need to lose weight? Balance your pH levels… Complex carbs: To help lower uric acid levels, you must eat more complex carbohydrates (fruits, vegetables, whole grains) and less refined carbohydrates (candy, cake, white bread) Water: Staying hydrated helps lower the chances of gout. Try to drink at least 8 glasses of water each day (Excluding other fluids such as cold drinks or coffee) Fats: Eat less saturated fats (red meats, fatty poultry and high-fat dairy products). Proteins: Eat less meat and fish proteins, (100 to 170 grams per day), and more low-fat or fat-free dairy products. Here are 8 Simple Steps for Dealing with Gout… Recommendations for specific foods or supplements: High-purine vegetables: Studies have shown that it is not harmful to add fruits and vegetables that are high in purine to your diet. High purine vegetables include: asparagus, peas, mushrooms and cauliflower. Organ and glandular meats: Avoid meats such as liver and kidney. These contain high purine levels which worsen the affect of gout. Selected seafood: Steer clear of the following types of seafood: anchovies, herring, sardines, mussels, scallops, trout, haddock, mackerel and tuna. Alcohol: Alcohol consumption increases uric acid levels in your body. Beer, red wine and certain distilled liquors are the main suspects in gout attacks. Vitamin C: Vitamin C may help lower uric acid levels in the body. Coffee: Although some people believe that coffee causes gout, studies have shown that normal caffeinated coffee may in fact help lower the risk of gout. Cherries: Studies show that eating cherries can likely reduced risk of gout attacks.

Everything You Need To Know About Gout

Gout is said to be “The Disease of Kings” This is because it usually develops due to eating and drinking like kings and queens! So how can we tell if it is gout? Characteristics of gout are abrupt, intense attacks of pain, redness and tenderness in joints, very often found in the joint at the base of the big toe. Gout is a very complex form of arthritis and it can affect anyone. Men are more likely to develop gout, but an increased risk of gout is present in women after menopause. An extreme attack of gout can cause a person to wake up at night with an intense burning sensation in the big toe. The joint affected by gout is extremely hot, very swollen and so sensitive that even the weight of the sheet on it may cause high levels of discomfort. Fortunately, there are ways to treat gout and also methods of minimizing the risk of it occurring in the future. If gout is left untreated, it can damage the joints, tendons, and other tissues. How is gout developed? Uric acid is produced by the body when it breaks down purines, which are substances that can be found in the body. Purines can also be found in certain types of food namely: organ meats, herring, anchovies mushrooms as well as asparagus. Other foods that lead to high levels of uric acids are those that get turned into high concentrations of glucose in the body. These include sugary drinks, bread, white rice, and pasta. This also includes beverages that contain alcohol, as alcohol also results in high amounts of glucose. Under normal circumstances, uric acid will dissolve in your blood and will get filtered by the kidneys whereafter it is excreted from the body through urination. Sometimes too much uric acid is produced or not enough uric acid is excreted by the kidneys. This is then what ultimately causes gout. Sharp crystals form in the joint or the tissue surrounding the joint which causes the swelling, inflammation and extreme pain. What are the symptoms of gout? Most of the time, the symptoms of gout are very sudden and painful. It often occurs in the middle of the night and can be so painful that it wakes you from your sleep.

Constant discomfortLingering discomfort may remain for days or weeks, especially in recurrent gout episodes. Redness and inflammationAffected joints become swollen, sensitive, and red. What happens if gout is left untreated? If gout is left untreated it can lead to more pain and permanent damage to the joint. Fever and sharp joint pain may indicate infection — seek medical attention immediately. What complications can gout lead to? Recurrent goutSome may experience gout only once, others multiple times per year. Medication can help prevent flare-ups. Advanced goutCan lead to tophi (urate crystal deposits) forming under the skin. Tophi are usually painless but can become swollen and tender during attacks. Kidney stonesUrate crystals can form stones in the urinary tract. Medication can help prevent this. How can I get tested if I suspect I have gout? Joint fluid testFluid is extracted from the joint and examined for urate crystals. Blood testMeasures uric acid levels, but may not always correlate directly with gout symptoms. How can gout be treated? Gout is most often caused by lifestyle factors. Treatment involves lifestyle changes: Eat the right foodReduce red meat, sugar, starches and sugary drinks.

Fight Gout in 6 Easy Steps

Many people only focus on foods that increase uric acid levels. But what about the foods that can actually help fight gout? Too much uric acid in the body can lead to serious pain in the joints. This pain can usually be seen in the form of things like gout and other types of arthritis. Anybody who suffers from gout can testify that it is horrible to live with. The good news is, it is relatively easy to fight gout! But let’s first find out why our uric acid levels get so high that they cause problems like gout… What causes high uric acid levels? It can be difficult to avoid acidic food with the modern lifestyle and way of eating. The acid in the stomach and body is caused by anything from salad dressings to sodas and fruit juices – which are typically foods high in acid. In addition to eating acidic foods, the acidity of bodily fluids can be increased by eating too much meat products and not enough fruits and vegetables. Having too much acid in your stomach and body can cause you to more susceptible to illness, and cause ailments like irritable bowel syndrome and acid reflux. While it’s important to have some acid in your body, you can get rid of too much acid by eating more alkalizing foods to help neutralize the pH in your body. Keeping your pH around 7.35 and 7.45 keeps you primed for optimum health, and simply changing your diet to include more alkaline foods can help get you there. What can I do to get rid of high uric acid levels to fight gout? Reduce acid in your stomach and body by following these simple steps… Step 1 – Start each morning off with fruit. This helps you balance the acid in your body. Even fruits that seem acidic, like citrus fruits, lemons, oranges, and grapefruits, have alkalizing properties once consumed and digested. Other good fruit choices include cherries, avocados, berries, and watermelon. Step 2 – Choose leafy green vegetables for lunch. Green vegetables help to alkalize the body. It also neutralizes acids which result in a decreased chance of osteoporosis. Brightly coloured vegetables like carrots, beets, peppers, and sweet potatoes are all highly alkalizing and can restore your pH balance and result in less acid in the body. Step 3 – Avoid eating meat with your dinner. Most meals are centered around some kind of meat. Animal products introduce acid into your body. The biggest culprits are beef and pork products. If you feel like you need an extra boost in your protein level around dinner, try Tofu, textured vegetable protein, or soy products as a healthy and low-acid substitution. Step 4 – Drink freshly prepared juices and smoothies. You can add leafy greens to fruit juice to sweeten them up and make them more enjoyable. This ensures that you get at least five servings of fruits and vegetables every day to keep your pH at an optimum level. Step 5 – Use spices while cooking to help perk-up bland eating. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and paprika are all examples of spices that won’t add extra acid into your body. Prepare the food in different ways to alter the flavour. Roasting or grilling fruits and vegetables can give them new and interesting flavours. This helps that you can enjoy them as you get rid of too much acid in your body naturally. Step 6 – Use Manna pH Balance. Getting rid of the excess uric acid in the body can help you avoid problems like gout and arthritis.

4 Foods That Worsen Your Gout

Have you ever felt like your gout gets a lot worse after you eat something? Why does my gout flare up after I eat something? The first thing to note is that this will not happen after eating just any type of food. There are specific foods that worsen your gout. So what foods worsen your gout? To break it down, gout is a form of arthritis due to high uric acid levels in the bloodstream. The uric acid forms a build-up around the joints which can cause swelling and inflammation. These foods are poison to people with gout… Purine-Rich Foods The breakdown of purines causes uric acid. So you should avoid foods like: liver, mussels, anchovies, spinach, asparagus, beef, and brewer’s yeast. These are all high in purines and you should steer far clear of them. High-Protein Foods Usually, protein is a good thing in any diet. However, when proteins are digested, they end up as uric acid. It is best to cut down on things like fish, poultry, eggs and red meat. Refined Carbs Avoid processed carbs like cookies, pasta, and bread. A carbohydrate overload in the body can cause a rise in the uric acid levels.

How do I get rid of gout fast?

Gout can be a pain to live with, but it does not have to be… It can actually be treated quite easily. People who have gout will tell you how uncomfortable and sore their joints become when their gout flares up. But what most gout sufferers don’t know is that they can get rid of gout in a completely natural manner. What is gout? To put it very simply, gout is inflammation caused by too much uric acid in the body. This inflammation usually affects the joints the most, causing “crystals” to build around the joints which cause the immense pain any gout sufferer knows all too well. So how do I get rid of gout? The easy option would be to just take a few Manna pH Balance capsules and continue with your lifestyle, here are a few tips to take it even further… With the right combination of lifestyle changes, eating certain foods, as well as avoiding certain things, gout does not have to be a problem. Drink More Water Changing your diet may help you manage chronic gout and help symptoms such as joint pain. Start by drinking more water, because dehydration might trigger gout attacks. One study showed that men who drank five to eight glasses of water in a 24-hour period had a 40% lower risk of gout attacks. But avoid sugary sodas, which may raise your risk. Find a Diet That Works for You Being overweight raises your risk of gout. So eat a balanced diet and lose excess weight — it can help your symptoms. Talk with your doctor about making diet changes. You may find that you can eat some foods without having a gout attack. Other foods may cause your body to react or may make your gout worse, though. Avoid Flare-Up Foods Weight loss is the most effective way to manage gout, but you also may benefit from eating a low-purine diet. Purines are found naturally in many foods. Your body breaks them down into uric acid. Too much uric acid in your blood causes gout. Some foods, like organ meats, sardines, and anchovies, are high in purines and can cause flare-ups. The good news is that many healthy options, like beans, lentils, and asparagus, have fewer purines. Talk to your doctor about what you can safely eat. Eat Plenty of Fruits Fruits provide good, fibre-filled carbohydrates and other nutrients that can help you maintain a balanced diet and healthy weight. Plus, they tend to have very few purines. Fruits high in vitamin C, like tangerines and oranges, may help prevent gout attacks. Some research shows that cherries or cherry juice can offer relief from gout. Ask your doctor if you should add cherries to your diet. Choose the Right Carbs If you follow diets that are low-carb or high in protein or fat, you may get too many purines. Processed carbohydrates like white bread and white-flour pasta have very few purines — but they can lead to weight gain. Instead, focus on healthy carbs with high fiber such as oats, sweet potatoes, beans, and vegetables. Essential Fats Eat more foods rich in essential fatty acids, including cold-water fish like tuna and salmon, flaxseed and other seeds, and nuts. Fatty acids may help lower inflammation. Use fatty acid-rich oil, such as olive oil, for cooking and for dressing salads. And try to cut back on, or get rid of, any trans-fats in your diet. Limit Your Alcohol Alcohol may raise your risk of a gout attack – especially if you have more than one drink a day – because it’s high in purines. Beer appears to be worse than other alcoholic drinks because it contains yeast. Moderate wine drinking doesn’t appear to raise your risk, though. Use Caffeine with Caution Moderate coffee drinking is thought to be OK for people with gout. And in some people who drink coffee regularly, drinking four or more cups a day may even lower the risk of gout attacks. But caffeinated drinks may raise uric acid levels in some people who drink them just occasionally. Eat Less Meat Eat limited amounts of chicken, pork, or lean beef – at most, one serving a day. Those types of meat have fewer purines than organ meats like liver and sweetbreads. Other meat products like gravies and meat-based broths are also high in purines. Enjoy Low-fat Dairy Dairy products were once off-limits to people with gout because they’re made from animal proteins. But they’re actually low in purines – and dairy purines don’t seem to cause gout. Low-fat milk and low-fat dairy may even lower your risk of gout by more than 40%. During a gout attack, low-fat dairy products may help you get rid of extra uric acid through your urine. You Can’t Eliminate Purines You don’t need to limit all purines. A few foods that are high in purines don’t trigger gout. One study found that peas, beans, mushrooms, cauliflower, spinach, and chicken – formerly considered foods to avoid – may not be linked to gout attacks. Manna pH Balance Changing your diet can have its own obstacles, but you can get effective gout relief with an all-natural supplement like the Manna pH Balance. This product helps to excrete excess uric acid from the body to give you effective relief without side effects. Manna pH Balance helps to increase the rate of acid excretion, thus treating gout by preventing further inflammation of the joints. The product also assists kidney blood flow rate.

How To Get Relief From Gout

That sudden thumping, burning pain that you get in your big toe can really ruin your day. What is gout? Gout can be explained as a sudden, severe attack of pain, tenderness, and redness in your joints. The most well known are the joint at the base of the big toe. Many people do not know that gout is a form of arthritis. It is very complex, but it can affect anyone. Men are generally in the most danger of developing gout, but women become more at risk after menopause. Gout attacks happen suddenly, and when you least expect it. They often occur at night, even waking you up from your sleep. Any pressure, even the weight of your duvet, can make the pain unbearable. Luckily gout is treatable. To be able to understand how to treat gout effectively, we must first understand how gout works… What symptoms can I expect from gout? As mentioned above, these symptoms usually happen quite suddenly. Common symptoms of gout are: Severe joint pain Although the most common joint is the one at the base of the big toe, gout can affect any other joint. Gout can occur in your wrists, hands, knees, ankles, and feet. The pain is normally at its worst a few hours after starting. Lasting discomfort After the pain dies down, you might experience discomfort in the affected joint for a few days or even weeks. Following attacks might get worse, affecting more joints or lasting longer. Inflammation and redness The affected joints become swollen, tender, warm and red. Limited range of motion Over time, gout causes your joints to become stiff and difficult to move. 3 Food Tips to Reduce Acid in the Body What can cause gout? Gout occurs because there is too much uric acid in the body. The uric acid builds up and forms sharp crystals around the joints. This causes the inflammation and pain that we know as a gout attack. How do these crystals form? The uric acid level in your body goes up when your body breaks down substances called purines. Purines are found in food like seafood, organ meats, and steak. Purines are also found naturally in the body and increase when you consume drinks like alcoholic beverage (especially beer and wine) as well as drinks that contain lots of sugar. Then why do I have uric acid in my body? Usually, uric acid dissolves in the bloodstream and gets passed through the kidneys and out of the body through your urine. But when there is too much uric acid for the kidneys to process, it stays in the body and forms urate crystals around the joints. 6 Steps to get rid of too much Acid in your body What increases my chance of getting gout? The higher the level of uric acid in your body, the higher your risk of developing gout. Here are a few of the main contributing factors… Your Diet A diet with a lot of red meat, seafood, beer, wine, sweets, and refined carbohydrates is one of the main contributors to high uric acid levels. 4 Foods That Worsen Your Gout Obesity Your body produces more uric acid and your kidneys have more difficulty processing uric acid when you are overweight. Medical conditions Conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, heart problems, and kidney disease make gout all the more likely. Medications Thiazide diuretics (medication used to treat high blood pressure), aspirin, and anti-rejection drugs used when you have undergone an organ transplant are all role players in causing gout. Family history of gout If one or more of your family members has had issues with gout, your chance of developing it is much greater. Gender Gout is more common among’st men, seeing that men usually have higher uric acid levels than women. Age Men usually develop gout earlier than women. Men can start to experience gout between the ages of 30 and 50. Whereas women usually only start developing it after menopause. Recent surgery Experiencing recent surgery or trauma has been associated with an increased risk of developing gout. 8 Easy Tips to Treat Gout What complications does gout hold? People with gout often develop more serious conditions, such as: Recurrent gout For some people, gout is just a once-off thing. While the more prominent case is that it happens again and again. Some form of treatment or medication is advised for people who have recurrent gout. If it is left untreated, gout can completely erode and destroy the joint. Advanced gout This happens when gout is left untreated. The urate crystals start to form under the skin. This causes bumps called tophi. Tophi forms in areas like the fingers, hands, feet, elbows, heels, and ankles. They are usually not painful but become tender and swollen during gout attacks. Kidney stones This can be your worst nightmare. Urate crystals form in the urinary tract, and then the body has to go through severe pain in order to pass them. In some cases, surgery is needed to remove kidney stones. The Best Alternative Gout Relief The Manna PH Balance supplement is probably the best gout relief, which you will ever come across. This product can help to excrete the excess uric acid from the body without any side effects. Serious gout sufferers testified that after 2 days their gout was gone and they could live pain free.

How To Notice If Uric Acid Levels Increase

Too much uric acid leads to all kinds of trouble. When there is too much uric acid in the body, the pH balance moves to the “acidic” side of the scale. When this happens, you develop problems like gout, arthritis, kidney stones, and general joint pain. But isn’t there something you can do about this? Yes, there is. But in order to treat this problem, we must first understand it a bit better. How does excess uric acid form? Uric acid is formed when the body breaks down purines, which is a substance in the human tissue and certain foods that we eat. Usually, uric acid dissolves in the blood and moves through the kidneys where it is then passing out of the body via urine. When the kidneys do not get rid of the uric acid as they should, or there is too much uric acid in the body due to high-purine foods, the uric acid in the body starts to crystallize. This crystallized uric acid can end up in the kidneys in the form of kidney stones, or in the joints where it causes gout (a form of arthritis). The 3 most common symptoms of high uric acid levels in the body are… Joint Symptoms Too much uric acid in the body causes joint symptoms in the form of gout, which includes pain, inflammation, swelling, redness, and tenderness when touched. Many people also say that the joint feels “hot”. Commonly Affected Joints – One of the most common areas affected by gout is your big toe. It is also not uncommon for it to affect the heels, ankles, knees, fingers, wrists, and elbows. It can often be experienced in one joint, and then thereafter in two or more different joints. Duration of Joint Symptoms – After the symptoms start, it typically takes about 12 to 24 hours for the pain in the joint to peak, whereafter it may become uncomfortable for a few days or even weeks. As they become more frequent, the pain or discomfort may linger for longer. If it is not treated, the damage to the joints may become permanent. Skin Symptoms After a few years of continues high uric acid levels and gout attacks, the crystallized uric acid may form lumps underneath the skin. They are called tophi and are usually not painful. They commonly form in the fingers, toes, elbows, and hands. When experiencing a gout attack, the tophi might become swollen and tender. Kidney Symptoms As mentioned, uric acid in the kidneys or the urinary tract may develop into kidney stones. They are usually more common among men, and they can lead to various symptoms like back pain, pain in the abdomen, severe pain in the groin area, a high fever, cold chills, nausea and vomiting, and blood in the urine. Why do uric acid levels get too high? This happens through one of – or a combination of – two things: The body produces too much uric acid. The kidneys don’t excrete it fast enough. What are the dangers of high uric acid levels? High uric acid levels lead to serious health issues, including: Heart Disease Kidney Stones Kidney Failure High Blood Pressure Gout What triggers uric acid levels to rise? Water pills (Diuretic medications) Drink too much alcohol, red wine especially. Genetics, it can run in the family. Hypothyroidism Immune-suppressing drugs Niacin, or vitamin B-3 Obesity, being overweight can have a ton of negative effects. Psoriasis Purine-rich diet — organ meat, game meat, anchovies, herring, gravy, dried beans, dried peas, mushrooms and other foods The inability of the kidneys to filter waste Natural ways to reduce high uric acid levels in the body can include: Alter your diet – try to reduce red meat, sugar, starches and sugary drinks.
