Gout free for 12 months :-) No one takes any notice here

I take a celery seed capsule in the morning abnd one at night.  I have recommended this several times here but there is no seemingly no uptake/interest.  They cost £5 on Amazon - I havent had a gout attack for over 12 months now and I was getting a couple a month before - just check out my previous posts.  My diet remains one of life's pleasures and includes red wine and steak!  I still take the cherry juice (three pumps a dayy) although this on its own couldnt combat the gout on its own.  I have taken diclofenac a few times fearing a recurrence due to twinges, but these kept any at bay (take 2 at first twinge and loads of water).

All I see here is talk of lifelomg drugs and I also failed to nail any culprit by diet - teetotal veggies get gout after all.

I see people tearing their hair out here - so just drop £5 on some celery seed tablets to try.  For me they have been a revalation.  Please post back if they helped - gout can make us really miserable and I really want to share what worked for me.

    Yup.  I've been taking celery seed tablets for a while, along with cherry juice or caps, lemon juice, etc.

      Yes.  But you have to do it every day, every day.  It works a treat but you never get to forget it.

    which cherry juice do you get?  I only  use NSAID gel for the pain - cant take the tablets as they make my stomach bleed. (Piroxicam gel)  I havent tried the celery seeds yet - but think I will.  Like you I have not identified any diet culprit - not sure I believe anything like that is responsible.  I think it is just something some people are liable to get (genetic etc).

      I use the Cherry Active 980ml pots.  Not remotely effective on its own but  its still good for me and combined with the celery seeds capsules I seem to have cracked it!  Everyone needs to spend £5 on these seeds to try.

    Cherry Effect capsules to disperse the crystals.

    Bromelian for the pain.

    I've always liked celery so I'm going to try some, it's on order now. I believe sugar is the main enemy for gout. All types HFCS, syrups, candy,cake, pie, cookies. And also whites from rice, pasta,bread, processed foods. I also use tart cherry juice and pHresh greens, and alkali water. I know too well how debilitating the gout pain can be. Best wishes to all.

       I've always avoided sugar as much as I can (too many calories!) but good luck with the celery tabs.  I took 2 a day spread out, but now just take 1 in the evening.
