Popular Home Remedies For Gout Pain Relief

I personally suffer from gout and I can feel for you if you to are suffering gout attacks. The pain is so extreme that most people including myself will try just about anything to relieve the pain. Here are some of the popular home remedies for gout pain relief that work for me. Give them a try and see if they work for you.

Apple Cider Vinegar - A high acidic body PH is ideal for the formation of uric acid, the underlying cause of gout attacks. Taking diluted apple cider vinegar helps to reduce your body PH to a less acidic state. Since most people have a tendency to eat a highly acidic diet, adding apple cider vinegar to your daily regiment could help you to reduce the number of gout attacks and the length of them.

Epsom Salts - Soaking a joint that has gout in Epsom Salts helps to reduce the swelling of the joint. The reduced swelling lowers the pain. When I have gout attacks I reach for the Epsom Salts and soak the effected joint a couple of times each day. This works wonders to take the edge off the pain.

Cherry Juice - I'm talking about black cherry juice concentrate and not kids juice here. Black cherry juice concentrate contains anthocyanins. Anthocyanins are anti-inflammatory agents that help to reduce uric acid levels in the bloodstream and help to reduce swelling. I take black cherry juice concentrate every day. This is a good choice for many gout sufferers. When shopping and selecting black cherry juice concentrate, make sure you choose one of high quality. I tried many brands and found out you do get what you pay for. The lower quality concentrates just did nothing.

Low Purine Diet - Purines in foods metabolize into uric acid in the body. To lower your chances of a gout attack, you want to lower the amount of purine rich foods you eat. This is not always an easy thing to do. Almost all foods contain different levels of purines. The body also needs a certain amount of purines for good health.

A quick way to reduce your purine intake is to lower the amounts of meats you eat while increasing the amount of vegetables and fruits in your diet. Personally I like meat. In fact, I love it. So I really monitor the amounts of it that I eat and make sure I eat plenty of low purine foods also. It's a balancing game that can be won.

I hope the above home gout remedies work for you as well as they have for me. Gout does not have to be a life sentence of pain. It can be managed.
