Even 100% fruit juice blends lack fiber and contain high levels of fructose, which can raise uric acid levels and trigger gout

Added by vblinden

Good
  • Can provide vitamins and antioxidants (e.g., vitamin C from orange or tart cherry juice), and tart cherry juice in particular has some evidence for modest uric-acid lowering and gout flare prevention.
Bad
  • Fructose (even naturally occurring) increases uric acid production via purine metabolism; juice lacks the fiber of whole fruit, causing rapid sugar absorption and a greater fructose/uric-acid spike. Many juice blends contain high-fructose fruits (apple, grape, orange) that are especially problematic for gout. Even 'no added sugar' 100% juice blends present a risk. Consuming more than one small serving daily is linked to increased gout risk.
