More than 9 Million People Suffer from this Serious Disease Cause by a buildup of Uric Acid…
Gout, once known as the "disease of kings and king of diseases," is among the most prevalent etiologies of chronic inflammatory arthritis in the United States. According to The Journal of the American Medical Association (Jama network) there are 9.3 million people in United State that suffer from Gout. Gout is a common form of inflammatory arthritis that is very painful. It is formed due to having too much uric acid in the body.
When there is too much uric acid in the body, uric acid crystals build up in joints, fluids, and tissues within the body. Gout usually affects joints throughout the body and typically starts with one joint at a time (often the big toe joint is the first joint). If you are suffering from gout you know that gout goes through periods of flares (Gouty attack). If you have gouty attack once in a while then there will not be an issue other than pain, but having gout multiple times can lead to gouty arthritis, a form of arthritis which gets progressively worse and leads to joint destruction.
There is no cure for gout, but gout effectively treated and managed with medication, self-management strategies and life style modifications.

Prevention
Diet plays a big role in flares and ongoing damage. Limit foods that has purines (red meat, cauliflower, spinach, and mushrooms, Some fish, seafood and shellfish, including anchovies, sardines, herring, mussels, codfish, scallops, trout and haddock) to name a few.
For people with frequent flares or chronic gout, there are drugs that could reduce the uric acid level either by excreting more often from the body or stopping it from formation to begin with. Your healthcare provider may recommend different types of drugs or dietary supplement Balance7 depending on your symptoms, level of uric acid and if you are taking other medication that could interfere with the gout medications.
