Frozen fruit juice bars can be okay for gout in moderation, but many commercial brands are high in added sugar or high-fructose

Good
  • Frozen fruit juice bars that are 100% juice or no-added-sugar varieties can be a refreshing lower-sugar alternative to other frozen desserts like ice cream (which is high in purines and saturated fat). Some whole-fruit bars provide vitamin C, which may help lower uric acid.
Bad
  • Many commercial frozen fruit juice bars contain added sugars (especially high-fructose corn syrup) and concentrated fruit juice, both of which are high in fructose. Fructose metabolism increases uric acid production and can trigger gout flares. Even natural fruit juice is a source of fructose without the fiber of whole fruit, so the sugar is absorbed rapidly. Portion size is also a concern since a single bar can contain 15–20 g of sugar or more.
