Instant Gout Relief

I had gastric bypass surgery, now I get 75-95 grams of protein a day. Should I cut back on the protein?

"What causes gout after gastric bypass? Is it due to eating too much protein." — Gout is gouty arthritis, a kind of arthritis. It’s caused by excess uric acid in the blood and this excess uric acid can form solid crystals that lodge in joints, particularly in those of the great toe. Your chances of getting gout are higher if you are overweight, drink too much alcohol, or eat too much of the foods that are high in purines. Some medicines, such as diuretics, can also bring on gout. Uric acid is the end product of the metabolism of purines. Your gout is not a result of having had bypass surgery.

"Should I cut back on the protein?" — Not unless advised to by your doctor.

My Grandfather have been suffering from gout but only developes pain between the 4th-7th of every month?
