Softdrinks can cause uric acid

Foods with high purine content will increase levels of uric acid in the body. One of them is contained in soft drinks (soft drink).
A new study says that eating sweet soft drink will make things worse. In fact, gout sufferers who frequently eat the same beer will be at risk.
The study subjects included as many as 46,393 men in Canada. Overall, subjects fill out a complete questionnaire about diet lived for several years. A total of 755 men suffered a recurrence of uric acid after consuming soft drink sweet.
"For patients who consume sweet soft drink will increase the risk of uric acid as high as 35 percent every time the presentation," said one researcher from the University of British Columbia Hyon K. Choi MD, PhD.
Furthermore, researchers mempersentase based on drinking frequency. Subjects who drink sweet soft drinks as much as two or more every day's a risk of uric acid as high as 85 percent.
Subjects who consumed a glass of soft drink every day had a risk of 45 percent. The subjects who consumed five to six times per week will be at risk of uric acid as high as 29 percent.
Complaints will be felt more severely in men who consume alcohol as much as two to four times per day. This risk will be increased by about 49 percent each time to consume alcohol.
This is the first study involving a large number of drinks consumed relations and grievances felt by the patient.
"Researchers found that if people eat a lot of fructose, the risk experienced by a two-fold. This risk also occurs when eating sugary drinks," said Choi as reported by WebMD.
Arthritis specialist from Atlanta VA Hospital, Karen Atkinson, MD MPH, welcomed the research. He considered it was considered a breakthrough on the type of beverage that should be avoided.
As is known, uric acid caused by excessive purine in the body. The disease occurs when uric acid is saturated body fluid of uric acid due to high levels.
If the condition of normal organs, but the production of excess uric acid, uric acid levels in the blood also rises. As a result, uric acid will crystallize when purines are not easily metabolized completely.
"The idea for this, high-purine foods increase the risk of uric acid. Once consumed will go directly to the digestive tract.
Actually, the processing of fructose by the liver to be toward the channel. However, this often is not realized, "said Atkinson.
Assistant professor of Emory University was reminded, though research Choi gave a clear explanation of the linkages between them. However, it does not prove whether by reducing soft drink consumption would reduce the risk of uric acid.
"However, most doctors agree that high-fructose drinks have no nutritional content is important. It should not consume too many soft drinks with high sugar content," said Atkinson.
Complaints of pain accompanied by swelling of uric acid in certain body parts. Precipitation of crystals in the body can cause swelling in the body. If not treated properly, could damage the connection joints and chronic pain.
