Your feedback
Good for you

Very low purine levels (around 10 mg per 100 g) place them among gout-friendly vegetables; they also provide fiber, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory compounds that support a balanced diet without raising uric acid.

Bad for you

Natural fructose content is modest and not a concern in whole-food form, with no significant gout risks identified in clinical guidance.
