Your feedback
Good for you

Pure unsweetened tomato juice is very low in purines, so it won't spike uric acid from purine load alone.

Bad for you

Commercial cocktail versions pack over half a day's sodium per serving, risking blood pressure and kidney strain. Tomatoes can elevate serum urate in about 20% of people.
