Curious why the most recommended Gout treatments are not working for me.

I've had a serious case of Gout since 2/9/17. Taking Doctor prescribed Colchicine twice a day along with two G-Out capsules and a lot of Tart Cherry extract juice. Going on the eleventh day of pain and swelling with no real rewlief thus far. Also staying away from alcohol and what I've been able to determine are 'bad' Gout foods, but trying to drink a lot of water. Any opinions?

    rustyG has it right. Fructose is possibly your biggest enemy. It can promote 'cell shock' which makes the body degrade nucleic acids of which purines are the result.

    Also, check out the affects of amylopectin A in Wheat.

    Good luck.

      No wonder I cannot eat wheat without expecting a gout attack. Wheat for me has been off my food list for decades now.
