Your feedback
Good for you

Strudel's base ingredients like flour, fruit, and butter are low in purines and not a direct gout trigger. A modest homemade portion with minimal added sugar is acceptable.

Bad for you

Store-bought strudels frequently contain high-fructose corn syrup and refined sugar, which can rapidly raise serum urate and increase flare risk. The high calorie and fat content also contribute to obesity and metabolic syndrome.
