My family is trying to get me to eat less lentils because they said it’s full of uric acid. But they curiously don’t say the same thing about eating meat everyday. How much uric acid is even in lentils compared to meat? Is meat worse on uric acid altogether or is there a nuance I’m missing?
Yeah that’s what I thought too. Meat surely has more uric acid.
Here’s some numbers. Some surprising ones in there, like sausage and brains are low in purines, but generally meat is much much higher: https://elevatehealthaz.com/wp-content/Purine Table.pdf
Oh thanks!
