Your feedback

Brown sugar is low in purines, but its high fructose content can raise uric acid levels and trigger gout flares.

Added by vblinden

Good
  • Brown sugar is virtually purine-free and provides a small amount of molasses minerals. A teaspoon in coffee or oatmeal is unlikely to trigger a flare.
Bad
  • The fructose in brown sugar can acutely raise uric acid levels within hours, and chronic overconsumption may increase flare risk. Limit to occasional small amounts.
