Your feedback

Alcohol plus added sugars make liqueur doubly risky for gout, despite negligible purine content.

Added by vblinden

Good
  • Liqueurs are very low in purines, so they don't add direct purine load. An occasional, very small serving may not cause an issue for some people with well-controlled gout.
Bad
  • The alcohol in liqueur increases uric acid production and reduces its excretion. Most liqueurs are also very high in added fructose, which can directly spike uric acid levels and trigger a flare.
