For the past half a year, I have experienced two recurring episodes of gouty arthritis, prompting me to reevaluate my approach to managing this condition. Initially, I had considered taking uric acid-lowering medication. However, I was wary of potential side effects and decided to explore alternative methods for reducing uric acid levels. I am intrigued by the possibility of using diet and lifestyle adjustments to manage gout symptoms and aim to report on my progress.
