Thanks SMS I have been trying to read through your diary to find any reference but it's a looong diary.
![]() I had no gout problems before the change in my diet. Hmmm I didn't know mushrooms could be a problem. Will have to cut them and see if that makes it ok. I am definitely drinking 2+ litres of water a day so that's definitely not it. Will cut mushrooms and see if that makes a difference. I don't eat alot of the other stuff so that's all it could be really. |

Mushrooms, spinach and cauliflower are my main veges I'm worried about cutting them out because it doesn't leave me with much else - I drink my full 3 litres of water daily so I'm not sure why else my Uric Acid would be so high.

Hi Pauly,
maybe try upping your water intake a little. I was drinking 3 litres and the clinic then told me to up it to 3.5 to 4litres. (1 litre for every 25kg that u weigh) seems to have helped me to lose more than the 1kg a week so it may help with your uric acid I dont know. Just a thought..... |

Hi all,
Just for anyone following this thread, I wanted to highlight a little part for more scrutiny :- Quote:
BUT, to take it as gospel when hugely overweight can be disastrous - so be sure to think (or check with your clinic) before taking that guide as mandatory. Asy said herself something like this - "At the start, following that rule, I would have had to drink SEVEN litres per day - that is MADNESS !!" ![]() It is dangerous to drink TOO MUCH water. so follow that particular guideline within reason..... ![]() ![]() Koh
