Title: gout question & remedy.
Post by: pmagalei on March 12, 2013, 08:59:44 am
Is anyone here suffering from gout and is there any remedies that are working for you. I have tried everything that other friends have suggested but it doesn't seem to calm down the beast. Running out of option. Calgon take me away. Ouch please don't come near my feet :BangHead:

Things I have tried:

Drinking 100% cherry juice
drinking Apple cider Vinegar
Not eating red meat & fish
Taking Allopurinal-Prescribed by Dr.(made it worse)
Not drinking Pepsi or cola-Seems to work
no oatmeal
no dark green(spinach)

The only thing I know about gout is my Grandfather used to stay away from Orange juice,because he said that would cause his gout to flare up.
