With Vitamin C, There’s No ‘Gout’ About It
Researchers: Vitamin C a ‘Useful Option’ in Gout Avoidance
Late last summer I wrote about gout. For those unfamiliar withthe condition, gout is a type of chronic arthritis that causessevere pain in and around the joints, all thanks to theoverproduction of uric acid. Uric acid is something that allbodies produce, but they primarily form when purines breakdown. Purines come from foods – meats, in particular – but they
are also the natural by-product of the body’s cells.
Anyway, last summer I wrote about a drink that increased one’schances of getting gout – soda pop. Today I’m doing just the opposite – writing aboutsomething that decreases one’s chances of getting gout.
What does this something happen to be? Vitamin C.
According to researchers from the University of British Columbia, men who take 500milligrams of vitamin C a day decrease their risk of getting gout by about 17 percent.
Published in the journal Archives of Internal Medicine, researchers looked at approximately
47,000 men to see what health and disease traits they had in common based on their ageand their lifestyle habits. The 20-year study found that those men who consumed largedoses of vi tamin C daily decreased their risk of v itamin C precipitously. For instance, those
men who consumed over 1,500 mg of vitamin C daily were almost 50 percent less likely todevelop gout than those men who consumed less than 250 mg per day!
Researchers estimate the risk of developing gout drops by about 17 percent for every 500milligrams consumed daily.
Because vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, large daily doses of vitamin C can be handledby the body without posing any short or long term risk. However, you should always play itsafe and consult your doctor before making any significant changes to your dietary regimen.
In the meantime, large doses of vitamin C are best acquired through supplementation. Inever discourage someone from getting their vitamins primarily from food, but to get 1,500mg of vitamin C daily, you’d have to eat around 14 oranges (granted, oranges aren’t the
world’s best source of vitamin C – peppers are – but you get my drift)! And considering the
fact that 1,500 mg really isn’t all that much, you’re better off supplementing with vitamin C toget its full array of benefits.
I don’t pretend to know what gout feels like, and quite frankly, I don’t want to know. Peoplecompare the pain to giving childbirth (another thing I’ve never experienced, and happily, willnever have to) or a bone fracture. And from what I understand, the painful flare-ups can lastanywhere from three to 10 days.
Ouch!
Do yourself and your joints a favor: Eat more vegetables (most vegetables are low inpurines), eat less meat (meats and cheeses are high in purines, especially organ meats)and start supplementing with vitamin C (a purine defeater).

I liken a gout attack to a NYC transit train running over your f oot !The Merck manual states
you can’t even let your sheet touch it and it is true.There are some foods like in the nightshade
family that exacerbate the problem as does caffiene and organ meats.I will increase my vitamin
C,thanx.

Thank you for the article – vitamin C is also effec tive, so I am lead to believe in the control
of High Cholestral, I am at present trying it – all citrus is good for Cholestral – but I would point out
that to eat 14 oranges a day would cause havoc – oranges are acid and I know, I suffered with sore joints – arthritic type pains – when I stepped up my intake of fresh squeezed Orange juice each day
– I thought I would increase my vitamin C that way – no go – sore joints !!
Vitamin C is cheap to buy and easy to take and builds the immune system against colds etc – so
thanks for the Gout article I will pass it on to some friends who have a problem ! !
Sincerely Carol Addis
