Not long after the Spring Festival holiday, the number of gout patients who went to the hospital increased a lot. It turns out that eating and drinking during the Spring Festival has brought a lot of burden to the body. Some people have high uric acid and even induce gout.
In Meizhou People’s Hospital, the doctor told reporters that after the Spring Festival holiday, many patients came to the hospital for treatment of high uric acid. High uric acid is the fourth highest after high blood pressure, high blood lipids, and high blood sugar. These four highs are easy to induce cardiovascular disease and cerebrovascular disease. The reporter learned that high uric acid comes from a high purine diet, and the further development of the disease is easy to induce gout.
The doctor reminds that during the holidays, friends and family get together and drink a little wine. According to the latest research, even cooking wine used for cooking is also a high-purine food, which is why, Many people suffer from gout attacks after dinner parties.
[Dr. Zhan Yaping, Department of Rheumatology and Immunology, Meizhou People’s Hospital: Alcohol used to be said to be liquor and beer (high purine), but in fact wine and rice wine are both (high purine). Including the rice wine we drink, rice wine for cooking, and rice wine, it is actually its alcohol content. Mainly alcohol research found that it will cause inhibition of uric acid excretion. ]
The doctor told reporters that in addition to regular treatment, gout patients mainly need to manage their own health on weekdays, and the first thing to do is to keep their mouths shut. Like many people who like the umami taste of seafood, most of them are high purine foods.
[Zhan Yaping: (high purine food) seafood, especially shelled crabs, shrimps and shellfish, as well as seafood, sea fish, and seafood are the most. The second is Cantonese’s favorite soup. The purine content in the meat is good, and the absorption is actually not that much. However, after stewing, boiling, and frying, the soluble purines in the juice and soup are very high. ]
The doctor told reporters that most people have always believed that men are the “main force” of gout, but recent studies have found that the probability of women developing gout is not low. In addition, due to modern eating habits, the probability of gout attacks in adolescents is also increasing year by year, which is related to adolescents’ love to drink fruit juices and beverages.
[Zhan Yaping: We drink carbonated drinks, as well as various sweet drinks, including freshly squeezed juices. In the case of fruit juice, the purine content of fruit is not high when we eat it, but after it is squeezed into juice, the purine content is very high. ]
The doctor reminds that if you want to avoid gout attacks, the most important thing is to keep your mouth shut and keep uric acid stable for a long time. During holidays, do not drink alcohol and eat less seafood.
