Now that the latest issue of my free gout newsletter is finished, it’s catching up time once again.
It is time to answer your short question about recipes for gout.
First, a warning. I have seen hundreds of so-called recipes for gout, and books of gout recipes. Most of them simply regurgitate old, out-of-date, advice about foods low in purines. Purines and gout are not that important, and certainly not for vegetables. If you see any of these, and you are not sure about their true value for gout sufferers, please let me know about them, and I will appraise them for you.
You might have noticed that I have started a new Gout Recipes section. Over the next few months, I will be adding new recipes here – all of them with a full nutritional assessment showing the likely effects on gout.
Do you have a particular recipe that you love to eat, but not sure how it will affect your gout? Just send the recipe to me, and I will assess it for you. I will publish the best of these in my gout recipe section.
Those of you who read my newsletter will know about my new club. I will be publishing extra gout recipes for club members. If you are interested in this, but missed the August newsletter launch, it’s not too late. Sign up for the newsletter (see links above) and you will get a message that tells you where the back issues are.
This post answers a short gout question in the gout diet section. If you still have questions about recipes for gout, learn the best place to get answers on my Gout Questions page.

My son is over 25 he has gout, hes on medication but not helping at all, i would be grateful for a seven a day recipe, i am fed up cookung chicken for him and vegetables its either boiled or roasted please help if u can i need to help him before its too late, it is depressing seeing him in pain. thank you i await for a reply. thank you again.
What medication? How long has he been taking it? What are his recent test results for uric acid? Has he had blood tests for iron?
How tall, what weight and is he generally active or not?
What food does he like best?
I know it seems a lot of questions, but it would be extremely wrong of me, or anyone else, to offer advice without proper information.
Please can you supply the information in the gout forum? I’m closing this page as it is over 2 years old.
