It tends to appear more often in men at the age of 50 and over when uric acid crystals form irritating accumulations in joints all over the body. The uric acid deposits assemble a bump or a growth and firstly appear at the base of the big toe, in the heel, hand or knee.

Quote:[list][*]The scientific explanation is the cherries content in calcium, phosphorus and especially the 191 mg potassium content for every 100 mg sodium.[*]Potassium keeps a healthy balance of the uric acid in our blood and prevents the crystallization in our joints.[*]Cherries are also benefic for the high levels of malic acid, able to neutralize both uric and lactic acid.[*]We hope you develop a better understanding of Uric Acid Levels on completion of this article on Uric Acid Levels.[*]Only if the article is understood is it's benefit reached.[/list]

[list][*]The uric acid is in fact a waste product occurring during the breakdown of purine amino acids.[*]In normal conditions, uric acid is being dissolved in the blood and eliminated by the kidneys.[*]When kidneys fail to do their job or the amount of destroyed purine is very high, uric acid crystals accumulate and lead to the apparition of Gout.[*]AN administration of water-soluble potassium product would create a balance in the amino acid metabolism and resolve the problems. [*]Question : I WAS told by my doctor recently that I have gout.[*]My uric acid level is high.[*]Since this may be at an early stage as I just had the pain attack, how can I manage it?[*]Are there any supplements that can help?[*]Foods that contain a high level of purine should be avoided, and these include red meats, organ meats and shellfish.[*]There are several herbs that have proven benefits for painful joints.[*]Celery seed and guaiacum are two very popular ones.[*]These are usually combined with other herbs such as ginger, capsicum and sarsaparilla for better synergistic effect.[/list]
