Wine

With moderation
Drink

Wine has very low purine content but its alcohol raises uric acid via reduced renal excretion, with mixed evidence showing moderate intake may be less risky than beer.

Your feedback
Good for you

Minimal purines and possible antioxidant effects mean moderate wine (up to 1-2 glasses) shows neutral or lower gout risk in some older studies versus beer.

Bad for you

Alcohol dose-dependently increases serum urate and recurrent flare risk, so more than occasional intake is discouraged especially during flares or with other triggers.
