The main fact to keep in mind is that spinach can be freely consumed separately or in other meals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next time when you are in a restaurant and you see spinach used as a base for other foods, eat it. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/foods\/spinach\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">It is loaded with all the nutrients your body needs<\/a>, so you will definitely want to consume it as often as possible. Never miss a chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suggested article: <a class=\"row-title\" href=\"https:\/\/goutpatients.com\/foods-avoid-gout\/\" aria-label=\"\u201cThe ULTIMATE List Of 14 Foods To Avoid With Gout\u201d (Edit)\">The ULTIMATE List Of 14 Foods To Avoid With Gout<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Is Spinach bad for gout?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here I must cover the relation between spinach and uric acid. And yes, it does affects it and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3368949\/\">there is medical data that confirms that<\/a>. But, it affects it in a good way. Spinach is rich in purines in moderation. This means that it isn\u2019t the richest nor the lowest when it comes to purines. There are several information I was able to find and each one is different. Spinach contains between 20 and 50 mg of purines per 100 grams. Even in the worst case scenario, it isn\u2019t dangerous and it should be consumed freely.<strong> Your uric acid levels won\u2019t be increased if you consume spinach.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I have mentioned already, spinach is rich in specific flavonoids such as kaempferol, quercetin, and myricetin. We are interested in the second one the most and here\u2019s why. It has been used in several studies which were conducted on mice. They discovered that this flavonoid did decrease the level of the uric acid, but in very low amounts. On the other hand, we can see another, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/26785820\">recent study that monitored the effect of these flavonoids, the quercetin the most on people<\/a>. They discovered that it did decrease the levels of uric acid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goutpatients.com\/goutcode\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/goutpatients.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/endofgout300x250.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-392\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>One way or another,<strong> spinach is actually beneficial for us, gout sufferers.<\/strong> Of course, do not expect some impressive or extreme properties and results, but at the end of a day, your uric acid levels will be lower. These are not the most impressive results I have come across, but they are still positive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Spinach with vinegar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I know that most of you will like their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myrecipes.com\/recipe\/spiked-steamed-baby-spinach\">spinach with vinegar<\/a>. Well, it is still a safe food to consume and it won\u2019t affect uric acid levels more than without vinegar. Regardless of how and when you consume it, this food is still beneficial and it can be still consumed without any risk of developing gout or making it worse. At the end of a day, this may be an even better choice than spinach alone. It is definitely more delicious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But, keep in mind that vinegar and spinach should not be consumed during the gout attack.<\/strong> The problem is in spinach actually. It is still a bit rich in purines and during a gout attack, the last thing we all want is to increase the intake of purines. Keep them, as low as possible and you will be fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suggested article: <a class=\"row-title\" href=\"https:\/\/goutpatients.com\/gout-and-apple-cider-vinegar\/\" aria-label=\"\u201cGout And Apple Cider Vinegar (Is It The Holy Grail?)\u201d (Edit)\">Gout And Apple Cider Vinegar (Is It The Holy Grail?)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/goutpatients.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/spinach2.jpg\" alt=\"spinach \" class=\"wp-image-709\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Spinach and gout can be linked and there won\u2019t be any issues. However, you may get some minor improvements but this is still a fresh topic. Don\u2019t forget that the spinach and vinegar are equally beneficial and there won\u2019t be issues either. If you are interested in knowing more, be free to leave a comment. Until then, try to add spinach to your diet, but in moderation only. Also, you must avoid it during a gout attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suggested articles:<br>&#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/goutpatients.com\/kale-and-gout\/\">Relation Between Kale And Gout Explained<\/a><br>&#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/goutpatients.com\/cauliflower-and-gout\/\">Cauliflower And Gout \u2013 Is Cauliflower Bad For Gout?<\/a><br>&#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/goutpatients.com\/broccoli-and-gout\/\">Broccoli And Gout (Is Broccoli Bad For Gout?)<\/a><br>&#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/goutpatients.com\/cabbage-and-gout\/\">Cabbage And Gout \u2013 3 Ways That Cabbage Can Help Us<\/a><br>&#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/goutpatients.com\/cucumber-and-gout\/\">Cucumber And Gout \u2013 Are Cucumbers Good For Gout?<\/a><br>&#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/goutpatients.com\/eggs-and-gout\/\">Eggs And Gout \u2013 Are Eggs OK If You Have Gout?<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know that most of you like spinach and some will even believe that it helps them with gout.
