Low-purine base vegetable but high in added sugars from candying that raise gout risk.

Added by vblinden

Good
  • Plain sweet potatoes are very low in purines (around 5-6 mg per 100 g) and do not raise uric acid, with potential anti-inflammatory benefits from fiber and antioxidants.
Bad
  • Candying adds significant fructose and sugars that promote uric acid production and are linked to higher hyperuricemia and flare risk.
