acid condition.

Apple cider vinegar

French bean juice

Drinking extracted juice of French beans is an effective home remedy to treat gout. This healthy juice should be consumed twice a day as it prevents the production of
high uric acid in blood.

Water

Another reason to have adequate water throughout the day. Water helps in flushing out toxins from the body including excess presence of uric acid. So have at least 8-9
glasses of water every day.

Cherries

As they have anti-inflammatory substance referred to as anthocyanins, it helps in reducing uric acid levels. They also prevent uric acid from crystallizing and getting
deposited in the joints. Another reason you should have cherries is they neutralize the acids and help in preventing inflammation and pain.

Berries

Consume berries, especially strawberries and blueberries. Enriched with anti-inflammatory properties, including them in your diet is beneficial to prevent high uric acid
levels in blood.

Fresh vegetable juices

Have carrot juice and add beetroot juice and cucumber juice in it. This is an effective remedy to treat high uric acid in blood.

Low fat dairy products

Another way to treat high uric acid is by consuming low fat dairy products in your diet. Go for low fat milk and curd and prevent high uric acid in blood.

Lime

As lime juice contains citric acid, a solvent of uric acid, adding it to your daily diet is helpful in preventing high uric acid level. Squeeze half a lime juice in a glass of
water and have it every day.

Vitamin C enriched foods

Including foods enriched with vitamin C is another way to maintain uric acid levels. These foods disintegrate uric acid and flushes it out of the body. Include foods such
as kiwi, amla, guava, kiwi, oranges, lemon, tomato and other green leafy vegetables.

Olive oil

Cook your foods with cold-pressed olive oil. This is a healthy start as it contains anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatory properties.

Celery seed

One of the most popular home remedies to treat high uric acid levels is by consuming celery seeds.

Pinto beans

Pinto beans are loaded with folic acid which helps in lowering uric acid naturally. You can also eat sunflower seeds and lentils to reduce the risk of high levels of uric
acid.

High-fibre foods

Adding foods that are high in dietary fibre also helps in lowering uric acid levels in blood. They absorb uric acid from the bloodstream and helps in eliminating excess
uric acid from your body through kidneys. If you have been diagnosed with high uric acid, increase the consumption of dietary soluble fibres such as oats, apples,
oranges, broccoli, pears, strawberries, blueberries, cucumbers, celery, carrots and barley.

Bananas

Have bananas as including them in your diet is beneficial in lowering excess uric acid levels.

Green tea

Another way to treat high uric acid is by consuming green tea every day. This helps in controlling hyperuricemia or high uric acid levels and also lowers the risk of
developing gout.

Grains

Have grains that are more alkaline. You can consume jowar and bajra.

I was surprised about some of the items included such as asparagus, cucumber, tomato,... I thought the are increasing the uric acid. Can someone confirm what is
correct and what is fake (I sound like a trump huh). And badly to hear that apples are good too.

Health benefits of grapefruit

Health benefits of grapefruit (Thinkstock photos/Getty Images)

Known for its slightly sour taste, grapefruit is a subtropical citrus fruit, which was first produced in Barbados as a hybrid fruit resulting from a cross between
a sweet orange and a pomelo.
It is named so because it grows in clusters like grapes, grapefruit is high with vitamin C and several other antioxidants, which do wonders for your health. Here are some
of the benefits it offers...

- It is high in enzymes, which burn fats and low in sodium. It also has a high water content. These things make grapefruit an ideal fruit for increasing metabolism and a
great option for those trying to lose weight.

- Grapefruit also contains salicylic acid that breaks down the body’s inorganic calcium, that builds up in the cartilage of your joints. So if you suffer from arthritis or
painful joints, drink grapefruit juice for relief.

- The Lycopene present in grapefruit, which gives the fruit its red flavour, works as an agent against tumours and cancers since it acts as a scavenger of cancer-causing
free radicals.

- Naringenin, another antioxidant compound, helps repair damaged DNA in prostate cancer cells.

- Antioxidants in grapefruit also help reduce cholesterol levels. Check with your doctor beforehand if you can have grapefruit juice because grapefruit has a negative
reaction against some prescription drugs.

- Grapefruit has a dietary fibre called pectin, which promotes better digestion.

- Grapefruit contains essential elements like iron, calcium, potassium, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, folic acid and B vitamins.
