Clementines are low-purine fruits that are safe for people with gout. They are rich in vitamin C, which may help lower serum uric acid levels by increasing uric acid excretion through the kidneys. A typical clementine provides about 36 mg of vitamin C, contributing to the daily intake that supports uric acid reduction. Clementines are also a good source of hydration and fiber, and are low in fructose compared to some other fruits, making them a favorable choice for a gout-friendly diet. There is no evidence of purine content or other compounds in clementines that would trigger a gout flare.
