Gout is a form of inflammatory arthritis caused by the buildup of uric acid crystals in the joints. It typically presents as sudden and severe pain, swelling, and redness in the affected joints, most commonly in the big toe. Gout can significantly impact one’s quality of life and requires a multifaceted approach to management, including medication and lifestyle changes. In particular, diet plays a crucial role in managing gout symptoms and reducing the frequency and severity of flare-ups.
