What is gout?

Gout is a form of arthritis (inflammation of the joints) that causes sudden, severe attacks of pain, tenderness, redness, warmth and swelling in some joints.

Gout symptoms

*Extreme pain in a joint, often the base of the big toe. Other joints can also be affected.

*Joint turns red-purple is swollen, hot, and stiff.

*High fever with or without chills

*Symptoms develop very quickly often at night & go away after 5 - 10 days.

*Can also develop lumps (“tophi“) under the skin in the outer ear, hands, feet, elbow, or knee.

Gout causes

*Too much uric acid

*Uric acid not excreted properly

*High levels of triglycerides

*Drinking too much alcohol

*Eating foods rich in purines, such as meat, shellfish, and sweetbreads. Uric acid is formed when purines break down.

Gout-dehydration link

Gout cure? Water. The connection between the above causes is that they all come from dehydration. So, the gout dehydration link is present in the above 5 situations either as cause and/or result of each one.

The body collects uric acid, often accumulating in joints. Uric acid is a byproduct of improper & incomplete protein digestion.

When there is not sufficient water to wash away uric acid, gout pain occurs. When dehydration becomes chronic, so does gout.

Treating gout with water

Treating gout with water In the early stages of gout, the simple act of drinking 2 glasses of water may offer pain relief akin to a gout cure.

However, as mild pains are often ignored, gout is usually not addressed until symptoms become more severe & until they become set.

At this point, increasing water may relieve some pain but it may take days or weeks for symptoms to show significant improvement because some of the damage has set into the joints.

It also takes longer for bodies that are chronically dehydrated to properly use the extra water.

Be patient. Increase water intake & keep drinking needed water consistently.

Of course, the best possible course is to prevent gout from taking hold in the first place.

So be certain to drink enough water regardless of how you feel especially as you age.
