Your feedback
Good for you

Provides heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids that may support overall health for people with well-controlled gout.

Bad for you

Contains 117-157 mg purines per 100 g, which the body converts to uric acid, increasing flare risk if portions exceed 3-4 oz or frequency tops 1-3 servings weekly.
