Expert Recommendation
“Gout
is often misunderstood as just a ‘joint problem,’ but it’s actually a metabolic
issue tied to poor uric acid clearance and chronic inflammation. A diet low in
purines and rich in alkaline, whole grains like millets can be transformative.
The
Gout Starter Pack
developed by the Fresh Start Wellness Café is a
practical, science-informed approach that reduces flare-ups and supports kidney
and joint health without compromising nutrition or taste.”
