Your feedback
Good for you

Millet is ideal as a staple carbohydrate in a gout-friendly diet, providing fiber without raising uric acid. Its plant-based purines are less uricogenic than those in meat, and its high fiber may help reduce purine absorption.

Bad for you

Only avoid if you consume fermented millet beverages like traditional millet beer, which introduce alcohol-related gout risks. Plain millet or millet flour is perfectly fine.
