Food

Bars are generally safe for gout, but added sugars and high-fructose corn syrup pose a flare risk.

Your feedback
Good for you

Dark chocolate (70%+ cacao) and low-sugar, plant-based protein bars can be good choices. Theobromine in dark chocolate may even help inhibit uric acid crystallization.

Bad for you

Many bars are high in fructose, added sugars, or high-fructose corn syrup, which directly raise uric acid. Some protein bars with animal isolates or brewer's yeast also increase purine load.
