Chowder

With moderation

Clam or shellfish chowder is risky due to concentrated purines in the broth.

Good

Homemade vegetable-based chowders (corn, potato) can be a safer alternative; smaller portions may be tolerated by some with well-controlled gout.

Bad

Clams and shellfish are high-purine triggers; cream, butter, and high sodium content can impair uric acid excretion and raise flare risk.
