Millet is a low-purine whole grain that is safe and beneficial for gout management.

Added by vblinden

Good
  • Millet is ideal as a staple carbohydrate in a gout-friendly diet, providing fiber without raising uric acid. Its plant-based purines are less uricogenic than those in meat, and its high fiber may help reduce purine absorption.
Bad
  • Only avoid if you consume fermented millet beverages like traditional millet beer, which introduce alcohol-related gout risks. Plain millet or millet flour is perfectly fine.
