Good
  • If the product contains dairy (milk, cream), the dairy component may promote uric acid excretion through its effect on renal clearance. Also, these are low in purines, so they do not directly contribute to purine load.
Bad
  • High added sugar content can increase uric acid production via fructose metabolism and may contribute to insulin resistance, both of which worsen gout. Many Ambrosia products are also calorie-dense with little nutritional benefit, which can promote weight gain—a risk factor for gout flares.
