To know how to prepare a diet to lower uric acid, it is necessary to know some details about uric acid and what causes its excess in the body.
Uric acid is an organic compound product of the degradation of purines, basic components of the nucleus of all cells.
Uric acid is produced mainly in the liver, intestine, muscles and kidneys, and is the product of the breakdown of substances called purines, which mostly come from animal proteins.
The human body also obtains uric acid from the degradation of its own cells, when they complete their complete life cycle and must be renewed naturally by the body.
Normally, uric acid is eliminated mainly through the kidneys.
High levels of uric acid in the blood are due to: an increase in its production in the liver, by a diet rich in purines or by little elimination at the kidney level.
