Good
Plain original Cream of Wheat is low in purines and free of fructose, making it a safe breakfast base. Pair it with low-fat milk or fresh berries for added benefit.
Bad
Flavored or sweetened varieties and toppings like brown sugar, honey, or syrup add fructose, which can spike uric acid. Avoid high-fat additions like butter or cream.
