Low in purines but often high in sodium; may trigger flares in some people.

Good
  • Pure unsweetened tomato juice is very low in purines, so it won't spike uric acid from purine load alone.
Bad
  • Commercial cocktail versions pack over half a day's sodium per serving, risking blood pressure and kidney strain. Tomatoes can elevate serum urate in about 20% of people.
