A tuna salad sandwich on wheat is acceptable occasionally with light tuna and limited added sugars.
Good
Made with light tuna on unsweetened whole-wheat bread, it provides lean protein with minimal purine load if portioned and consumed occasionally.
Bad
The tuna is moderate-to-high purine, potentially raising uric acid. Added sugars or high-fructose corn syrup in commercial mayo or bread can also trigger flares.
