Flax seeds are low in purines and rich in anti-inflammatory compounds that may actively lower uric acid.

Good
  • Their plant omega-3s and lignans have been associated with lower gout risk and reduced uric acid. They also provide fiber, which supports healthy weight and digestion.
Bad
  • No specific concerns for gout. If you take blood thinners, consult your doctor due to flax seeds' natural anti-coagulant effect.
