Your feedback

Mung beans have moderate purines but are safe and may lower gout risk when prepared plainly.

Added by vblinden

Good
  • Their plant purines don’t raise flare risk like animal sources, and polyphenols may inhibit xanthine oxidase and reduce uric acid.
Bad
  • Avoid sweetened mung bean desserts or soups, as added fructose spikes uric acid production and can trigger gout attacks.
