Gout Fighter Plus has been uniquely formulated to nutritionally assist the
relief of painful gout symtoms
which plague many people world
wide. The combination of sour
cherry, celery seeds plus white
willow bark is intended to
synergistically work better
than any one of these ingredients
by itself.
Together these herbs
may help temporarily relieve
joint pain associated with gout, reduce
joint inflammation and swelling
and assist in the improvement
of joint mobility. It may also
help maintain healthy uric acid
levels.
Sour cherry and celery seeds
are traditionally used for symptomatic
relief of gout and to help maintain
healthy uric acid levels. White willow
bark is traditionally
used as an anti-inflammatory
and analgesic.
Gout is a form of arthritis
that occurs when high levels
of uric acid in the blood lead
to the formation
of crystals in the joint,
triggering the characteristic
symptoms of pain, swelling,
joint tenderness,
and inflammation in any part
of the body, but particularly
in the foot area, making it
extremely hard to walk, with
many having to use crutches.
When you touch a gout area it
causes a needle sharp pain and
this is because the crystals
that have formed are needle
sharp to the tissues. Once you
have had gout it is probably
going to occur again, so taking
steps to thwart it is a good
idea.
The acute recommendation
of 1 tablet
twice daily, with food, is for
until the
symptoms subside.
The maintenance amount is
1 tablet daily, with food, or
as professionally prescribed.
Local ice therapy may also
help
relieve the acute pain
Steps that may help to lower your
uric acid levels long term:
- Take 1 tablet of
Nature’s Sunshine Gout Fighter
Plus daily with food or as professionally
advised.
- Cut back on alcohol
– especially beer and spirits.
- Avoid soft drinks
and other sugar-sweetened beverages.
- Instead, drink plenty
of water to maintain hydration
and help flush excess uric acid
from the body.
- Decrease your intake
of meat (especially offal) and
seafood (particularly anchovies,
mackerel, sardines, mussels and scallops)
– these foods are rich in purines that can elevate
uric acid.
Each person can ascertain
for themselves which foods in
any category, fruit, vegetables
etc triggers an attack. Best
to avoid these foods in that
case.
