Your feedback
Good for you

The base ingredients—peanut butter and cocoa—are low in purines. Choose unsweetened versions or dark chocolate for anti-inflammatory polyphenols that may help inhibit uric acid crystallization.

Bad for you

Commercial spreads are often loaded with added sugar and high-fructose corn syrup, which directly raise uric acid levels and increase flare risk. The calorie density also contributes to weight gain.
