Your feedback
Good for you

Low-fat cottage cheese is linked to lower gout risk because its proteins help the body excrete uric acid more effectively, and it contains almost no purines that raise uric acid levels.

Bad for you

Flavored or full-fat versions may add extra calories or saturated fat, so plain low-fat cottage cheese is the better daily choice for most people managing gout.
