Raisins are dried grapes with a low purine content, making them generally safe for people with gout. They are a good source

Added by vblinden

Good
  • Low purine content; rich in antioxidants like flavonoids that may reduce inflammation; good source of potassium, which supports uric acid excretion via the kidneys; contains fiber that supports overall metabolic health.
Bad
  • High in fructose, which can increase uric acid production when consumed in large amounts; calorie-dense, which may contribute to weight gain and worsen gout if overconsumed; dried fruit is more concentrated in sugar than fresh fruit, so portion control is important.
