Orange juice contains negligible purines but its natural fructose can raise uric acid levels, leading to recommendations for limited intake.

Good
  • Provides vitamin C which may offer modest uric acid-lowering effects in some studies, and has no purines unlike animal products.
Bad
  • High fructose content promotes uric acid production similar to sugary sodas, with studies linking regular consumption to increased gout risk; guidelines advise limiting juices over whole fruit.
