Speaking of high uric acid, I believe everyone has heard of it to some extent. It is a chronic disease that has occurred more frequently in recent years after the “three highs”. It is also known as “Fourth highest”. Clinically believed that the male uric acid value should be 149 to 416 micromoles per liter, while the female uric acid value should be 89 to 357 micromoles per liter. As long as this range is not exceeded, the functioning of the body, especially the functioning of the organs, will not be affected.
High uric acid is mainly caused by the disorder of purine metabolism in the human body. Under normal circumstances, the daily production and excretion of uric acid in the human body maintain a balanced level. One-third of the uric acid comes from food, and two-thirds is synthesized by the body. If high-purine foods are consumed for a long time, the metabolic burden of purines on the human body will increase, and then the balance of uric acid will be broken, causing some adverse reactions. Which foods are high purine foods? How to reduce uric acid in life?
First, do not underestimate high uric acid, it is very harmful!
The normal functioning of the human body produces about 750mg of uric acid and excretes 800 to 1000mg of uric acid every day, and 30% of the excreted uric acid is excreted through the intestines and bile ducts, and 70% Excretion through the kidneys, that is, the kidneys are the key organ for uric acid excretion. If a high-purine diet is maintained for a long time, the uric acid in the human body will increase, and the excretion and production cannot be kept in balance, which will lead to a decrease in renal creatinine clearance.
A 5% to 25% reduction in renal creatinine clearance can lead to hyperuricemia. Hyperuricemia can cause uric acid deposition that affects many joints throughout the body. For example, toes, ankles, knees, including upper limbs, wrists, elbows, etc., may have acute gouty arthritis, which will affect the patient’s normal life and daily activities. to hinder.
In addition, a large amount of uric acid is excreted through the kidneys, which will increase the metabolic burden on the kidneys, which will then lead to kidney disease and lead to Hematuria, proteinuria, and ultrasonography can even reveal kidney stones. Damage of kidney function will not only affect the metabolism of uric acid, but also hinder the excretion of other metabolic impurities in the body. The accumulation of harmful substances in the human body will further damage the health.
In addition to uric acid deposition affecting joint flexibility and causing damage to kidney function, long-term high uric acid status will also cause heart disease. Some hidden dangers of cerebrovascular disease. Problems like high blood sugar and high blood pressure will have some impact on blood vessels, and elevated blood uric acid will also be detrimental to blood vessel health. Long-term high uric acid can aggravate arteriosclerosis, coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease and other diseases, and the aggravation of the disease is naturally detrimental to the health of the whole body.
Second, when you encounter these “big purines”, please keep your mouth shut!
People’s living standards are improving, and there are more and more choices of food ingredients. However, due to the high purine content in some foods, long-term intake of large amounts will easily increase uric acid, which does not meet the standard of healthy diet, so more attention should be paid to the daily diet. So which foods in your life are high in purines?
1, Various types of seafood
Seafood is often used as a hard dish on the dining table, especially for some inland cities, it is not to mention how enjoyable it is to have a meal of fresh and plump seafood. The nutrient content in seafood is still very high, and proper intake can obtain sufficient protein, calcium and various minerals. Everything should be done with a certain degree. If you consume seafood too much for a long time, it will have adverse effects on your health.
Seafood such as anchovies, sardines, sea shrimp, shellfish, fish eggs, etc., have relatively high purine content, and the purine content per 100g of food can reach 100 to 1000mg. If such seafood is ingested for a long time, the balance of uric acid in the human body will inevitably be disrupted, which will lead to related adverse reactions, even hyperuricemia. For patients with high uric acid problems, they should avoid ingesting such seafood.
Of course, there are also types of seafood with relatively low purine content. Such as herring, tuna, lobster, crab, oyster, etc., the purine content per 100g of food is less than 75mg. If you have to eat seafood to satisfy your appetite, it is better to choose these types. As long as you control the intake, you can avoid excessive purine intake.
2, Various broths
I believe that most people have experienced the feeling of drinking broth, a bowl full of soup with a little chopped green onion floating on the surface. Some broths are well made, and even after a long time of cooking, they can even show a rich flavor. =”17″> White, but I really want to drink it, but I only feel greasy for a while. Older generations at home generally believe that broth is a kind of tonic, which can not only supplement calcium, but also provide a variety of nutrients to the body, which is a healthy diet. But in reality, the broth is not as healthy as it seems.
After the broth is boiled, the fat in it will be decomposed into the soup by high temperature. This is the reason why there is no oil in the broth after cooking. In addition, most meats contain purines, and purines are easily soluble in water. During long-term stewing, purines will enter the soup< /strong>, and therefore, the purine content of broth is generally high, and if it is ingested for a long time, it will inevitably affect health.
3, various animal internal organs
Animal offal is a standard feature on contemporary wine tables, whether it is in high-end restaurants or night market stalls on the street. Although the appearance of animal offal is not high, the taste is quite good. With the change of cooking methods, you can also experience different tastes and textures. Animal internal organs have high nutritional value, high-quality protein, vitamins, and trace elements such as iron, zinc, and copper, which are in line with human needs.
Animal viscera is deeply loved by the majority of the people, especially in the middle-aged and elderly circles, where it occupies a high position and is often used as a subordinate organ. Food and wine appeared on the table. However, due to the high purine index, frequent intake is not recommended. Internal organs such as powder sausage, chicken heart, large intestine, etc., each 100g of purine content can reach 250 to 300mg. If a large amount is consumed for a long time, it will destroy the uric acid balance in the human body, and then trigger a series of Adverse reactions.
4, All kinds of mushrooms
Mushroom food is very common in people’s life and is a kind of food that everyone likes very much. Whether it is soup or stir-fry, the unique aroma of mushrooms will add luster to the dishes. As we mentioned earlier, broth and organ meats are high purine foods, which means that meat is generally high in purine. Therefore, in order to avoid excessive intake of purines, some people will try to increase their vegetarian intake, and mushrooms have become the best choice at this time.
Mushrooms belong to the category of vegetarian food, but most of them contain purine ingredients, even high purine foods. For example, the purine content of shiitake mushrooms can reach 150 to 300 mg per 100g, which is a pure “big purine”, so you should pay attention to restrictions in your daily diet to prevent various complications from coming to your door. For patients with high uric acid problems, they should pay more attention to the intake of mushroom foods, even if they are medium purine foods such as enoki mushrooms and king oyster mushrooms, they should eat less.
5, beer
drinking It has become a way of life for young people and even middle-aged people to relax their body and mind. Meeting three or five friends on the roadside, after a chat, it is inevitable to open a few bottles of cold beer, which can not only quench thirst but also add fun.< /span>As everyone knows, this way of life does not meet the needs of health and may even cause great harm to the body.
Drinking and eating skewers in the middle of the night itself violates the basic rules of eating on time. When the body should rest, it has to bear the burden of extra eating, which will naturally affect the operation of the organs, and then make Function is impaired.After alcohol enters the human body, it will not only increase the pressure on liver operation, but also inhibit the normal excretion of uric acid. The problem of high uric acid causes related discomfort.
For those with high uric acid problems, various alcohol The intake of beer should be controlled, especially beer, which must be prohibited, and not a single drop can be touched.The raw material of beer is mainly malt, no matter what kind of malt it is. After finishing, the purines contained will be reduced. However, due to the influence of the beer production process, during the production process, the A large amount of malt will then cause a large number of purines to accumulate. If you drink beer in moderation for a long time, it will inevitably affect the level of uric acid.
Third, reduce uric acid, you can try these tricks!
1. Plan your diet properly
We mentioned a lot of high-purine foods earlier, and the most direct way to ensure that the balance of uric acid in the human body is not broken is to reduce the intake of purines. Regardless of whether there is a problem of high uric acid, it is recommended that you plan your diet. First of all, you must reduce the intake of high-purine foods, such as animal offal, seafood, mushrooms, etc. The intake of these foods will reduce the purine content in the human body, and the uric acid level will gradually return to a balanced state.
Secondly, in addition to the choice of ingredients, the intake of alcohol should also be strictly controlled. Not to mention that drinking alcohol will have an adverse effect on the fluctuation of uric acid levels. Just because alcohol damages the liver, it is worthwhile for those who love alcohol to quit drinking as soon as possible. Even if they cannot quit, they should be appropriately reduced. A variety of alcohol intake, so as to avoid the substantial damage to the liver caused by alcohol, the impact on health. For patients with high uric acid, the best way is to stop drinking, and it is more conducive to the recovery of uric acid levels without drinking alcohol.
2, Keep soaking feet
For people who have a busy day, soaking their feet before going to bed is a very good way to keep healthy. It can not only relax the body and mind, get rid of fatigue, but also help sleep.More importantly, long-term foot soaking also has a certain effect on reducing uric acid. The principle of foot soaking to reduce uric acid is that the soaking script itself has the effect of promoting blood circulation, making the systemic circulation more smooth, which will help the metabolism of uric acid.
However, I would like to remind everyone that there are many factors that cause the increase of uric acid, and it is necessary to adjust the lifestyle in a targeted manner to effectively improve it. The practice of lowering uric acid is often not advisable. Foot soaking can only play an auxiliary role in lowering uric acid. Too much reliance on foot soaking to reduce uric acid is not conducive to the control of uric acid levels.
3, rational drug use
For patients with gout caused by high uric acid, timely drug treatment is more conducive to alleviating the adverse reactions caused by high uric acid. The uric acid-lowering drugs on the market are mainly divided into two categories, one is to promote the excretion of uric acid, and the other is to inhibit the production of uric acid. Considering the actual situation of each patient is different, There are also some differences in medication. But no matter which drug it is, it can reduce the adverse effects of high uric acid in a targeted manner.
4, Exercise properly
Exercise properly is essential for strengthening your physique, controlling your weight, and even Lowering the level of uric acid has a certain effect.It is recommended that people with high uric acid increase the time and frequency of aerobic exercise in their life. It is best to arrange 3 to 5 times a week according to their own conditions. Moderate-intensity exercise for about 30 minutes. During exercise, the circulation speed in the body will be accelerated, the metabolic capacity will be enhanced, and the uric acid level will become more stable. Lowering uric acid is a long-term battle, and the effect of controlling the amount of exercise will be better.
Summary:
High uric acid It has become the “fourth highest” after the “three highs”, and the incidence has been increasing in recent years, which makes people have to pay attention.Excessive uric acid level is mainly related to the wrong Lifestyle-related, especially excessive intake of high-purine foods, will directly affect the level of uric acid. Such as broth, mushrooms, animal offal, beer, seafood, are all high-purine foods, if the intake can be reasonably controlled, Uric acid levels will remain within the normal range and adverse health effects will be reduced.
