  • As someone with gout, I can say that eliminating carbs and red meat and going ketogenic did not relieve the gout. I’m on a prescription med, Allopurinol, to keep my uric acid down. Also, this issue started 10 years ago, when I was 50, so it wasn’t a problem for most of my life, when I ate a normal amount of carbs and red meat. So, there’s an age and probably genetic factor too, since most people eat carbs and red meat their entire lives and do not get gout. So far, no one knows why uric acid spikes in some people and not others.
