Your feedback
Good for you

Plain, unsweetened pastries made with minimal sugar and healthy fats are very low in purines and unlikely to trigger a flare.

Bad for you

Most commercial pastries are dense with added sugar and high-fructose corn syrup, which directly increases uric acid production and may worsen gout.
