Tip: Start your morning with a glass of warm lemon water by squeezing the juice of half a lemon into a glass of water.

5. Avoid Sugary Beverages and Foods

Fructose, a type of sugar found in sugary drinks and processed foods, increases uric acid production in the body. Cutting back on these foods can help reduce uric acid levels.

Foods to Avoid: Soft drinks, fruit juices with added sugar, candy, and processed snacks.

Alternative: Opt for water, herbal teas, and natural sweeteners like stevia or honey in moderation.

6. Incorporate Cherries and Berries into Your Diet

Cherries, especially tart cherries, are known to help lower uric acid levels due to their high antioxidant content, particularly anthocyanins. Berries like strawberries and blueberries also help reduce inflammation and uric acid buildup.

Tip: Snack on fresh cherries or drink cherry juice regularly. You can also add a variety of berries to your breakfast or smoothies.
