Dal is a safe and nutritious protein source for gout; plant purines do not raise urate levels.

Added by vblinden

Good
  • Provides low-purine protein and fiber without raising uric acid like animal proteins. Regularly included in heart-healthy DASH and Mediterranean diets recommended for gout.
Bad
  • If prepared with large amounts of added sugar, the fructose may modestly raise urate. Pairing dal with beer or sugary drinks could have a combined negative effect.
