Pineapple Salad With Dressing is generally safe for people with gout. Pineapple has moderate purine content but is rich in vitamin C

Added by vblinden

Good
  • Pineapple provides vitamin C (helps lower uric acid) and bromelain (anti-inflammatory). Salad vegetables (lettuce, greens) are low-purine and base-forming. Vinegar-based dressings are neutral or beneficial for gout.
Bad
  • If the dressing contains high-fructose corn syrup, added sugar, or cream (which may be high in saturated fat and calories), those could be less optimal. Excess intake of any high-purine fruit is not recommended, but pineapple's purine level is modest.
