Which foods you should eat and which ones you should avoid if you are a gout sufferer? The answer is complex and each and every food is different. It is always a better choice to discover the effects of that meal on your condition before you actually try it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is where I come to action. I am trying to find all possible and known to man foods that will battle gout and provide some benefit. I am especially interested in foods that decrease uric acid levels and decrease pain in the case of the gout attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the fruits I always liked is coconut. It is a magical fruit with great benefits. But, how coconut and gout are connected? Let\u2019s find out together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Basics about coconut<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Coconut is a fruit that comes from Cocos Nucifera or coconut palm. It is popular across the world these days. But, they have been cultivated and consumed in various, tropical areas for over 4500 years, which makes them one of the oldest foods known to man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In general, coconuts are healthy<\/a> and they should be consumed. However, we all know that if something is healthy for ordinary people, it may be dangerous for gout sufferers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

100 grams of coconut or one cup is loaded with iron, copper, selenium and also manganese<\/a>. Raw meat of coconut contains 354 calories, 3 grams of protein, and 15 grams of carbs. It also contains 33 grams of fat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"coconut\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Dried coconut meat contains 650 calories, 7.5 grams of protein, and 65 grams of fat. It contains 25 grams of carb and 18 grams of fiber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coconut will help you by protecting your heart and assist you in managing blood sugar levels. It is rich in antioxidant properties.<\/a> More specifically it contains p-coumaric acid, caffeic acid, salicylic acid, and gallic acid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It looks like coconut and gout can be linked in a great way and you will get all sorts of benefits. In the next section, I will explain the link in detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The link between coconut and gout<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is obvious that coconut and gout are more connected than you may believe. This is a healthy fruit and the one that comes with great health-related perks. Most people who try to lead a healthy lifestyle like coconut and consume it daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, coconut is rich in fat and calories.<\/strong> Consuming a lot of the fruit will \u2018\u2019help\u2019\u2019 you gain weight. You must remember that excess weight is bad for gout and it will have an extremely negative effect on your overall health. More weight means more uric acid and a body is less effective in removing the acid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to scientists, these issues are not completely researched and there is no 100% accurate and detailed information. However, most experts agree with what I have said above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other side of the story, I have discovered that one man from Asia use coconut oil 3 times per day (1 tablespoon) to manage gout and the treatment is extremely successful. There are no details regarding coconut and gout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is Coconut Bad for Gout?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Coconut isn\u2019t bad for gout. It won\u2019t spike uric acid and it won\u2019t cause a new attack.<\/strong> What I am trying to say is yes, you can consume this fruit occasionally. Just don\u2019t expect some major improvements with gout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eating coconut on a daily basis isn\u2019t recommended for gout sufferers. It will increase your weight eventually and you will be at a higher risk from another flare! The best thing is to add one cup of fruit per week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to coconut oil, the situation is slightly different. It also contains fat but in smaller amounts. If you are eager to try new remedies, try this one. Use coconut oil 3 times a day for 10 days and use it during the flares.<\/strong> You have 50% odds that it will help you. If there is no improvement, stop using it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coconut and gout are something I like to call partially neutral. There are no clear advantages or improvements, but there are no direct drawbacks. There are indirect issues though. You can consume it occasionally, but frequent usage is something to avoid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
