Your feedback

A very low-purine vegetable that may even help reduce uric acid levels based on preliminary clinical evidence.

Added by vblinden

Good
  • Its high potassium, vitamin C, and fiber support kidney health and urate excretion, while its negligible sugar content avoids fructose-driven uric acid spikes.
Bad
  • None significant for gout; the root is not high in oxalates, and its purine load is negligible—even lower than most other vegetables.
