New possibilities of therapeutic nutrition in patients with gout

Abstract

Gout is one of the most common forms of inflammatory arthritis. It is known that gout occurs in connection with the deposition of mono-sodium urate crystals in the joints due to high levels of serum uric acid. One of the main risk factors for developing gout is dietary habits. Changes in dietary habits and recommendations for lifestyle modification in gout are the main principles of treatment and management of patients. The purpose of this study is to summarize the current knowledge on non-pharmacological treatment and management of patients with gout.
