A moderate-purine whole grain considered safe for gout due to how plant purines are processed.
Good
Provides fiber, magnesium, and polyphenols like rutin that may mildly inhibit uric acid production. Replaces refined starches and fatty sides in a gout-friendly diet.
Bad
Sweetened preparations (with sugar, honey, or syrup) add fructose that can trigger flares. Eating very large portions (over 80 g dry) daily without other dietary adjustments may be excessive.
