Yogurt melts are very low in purines and the yogurt base is actually beneficial for gout (dairy proteins promote uric acid excretion). However, they contain added sugar and fruit purees, which introduce fructose—a known trigger for uric acid spikes. The absolute fructose load per serving is modest (roughly 8–9g sugar per 100g, or ~0.3g per piece), so an occasional small snack of 10–15 pieces is unlikely to cause a flare. Still, they should not be a daily staple; plain, unsweetened yogurt is a better routine choice for gout management.
