Mushrooms And Gout – Are Mushrooms Bad For Gout?

We all know that gout sufferers are more than just cautious regarding their food and their meals. Here we have one type of food which is more than just problematic, simply because it is still unknown to most people. I mean unknown because there are a lot of different species of mushrooms, 140.000 as a matter of fact. So, what I have to say about mushrooms and gout?

Are Mushrooms Bad For Gout?

Mushrooms are more than just ideal meal for all of us. First of all, they are rich in vitamins, minerals and low in calories. This combination made them so great when it comes to replacing meat from your diet. As a matter of fact, I will recommend you to replace a meal or two which consists of meat with mushrooms. Mushrooms and gout are great due to the fact you won’t increase uric acid regardless of the fact how much mushrooms you eat.

As I have mentioned, mushrooms can replace meat, which isn’t so great for us, gout sufferers. The same amount of mushrooms contains 3 g of proteins, while meat will contain 20 g. This is impressive at the lack of a better word and now you can understand why mushrooms are more than just ideal for all of you.

Mushrooms won’t increase the risk of gout nor of a gout attack. So, the bottom line here is yes, you can consume mushrooms as much as you like, even if you are a gout sufferer like me.

Reishi mushrooms and gout

This species of mushrooms must be explained separately due to the fact they have been involved in a study which involved patients suffering arthritis. They discovered that the mushrooms in question reduced the inflammatory complications and reduced the side effects those cells had. In a nutshell, they make arthritis bearable and less severe than usual. We all know that arthritis is an autoimmune disease, as gout.

Sadly, the mentioned study didn’t involve anything regarding gout, but if we know that arthritis and gout are similar, we can deduce that these mushrooms are more than just essential to add to your diet. Furthermore, they are delicious and I like them a lot. In general, these are the mushrooms you will have to consume in order to get the lower risk of gout or a gout attack.
