A moderate-purine whole grain considered safe for gout due to how plant purines are processed.

Added by vblinden

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.
