Good
  • It is low in purines and provides complex carbohydrates, which can help maintain energy without raising uric acid levels. Whole grain varieties also offer fiber.
Bad
  • Refined masa harina lacks significant nutrients and may contribute to weight gain if eaten in large amounts, indirectly affecting gout control.
