To reduce your uric acid level, you should lower your intake of purine-rich foods. The following are foods that have low to high purine levels (40 to 515 mg purine per 100 g serving)​.

Patients with high uric acid should avoid foods having more than 100 mg per 100 g serving. If your favourites are on this list, cut back on how often you eat those foods and always drink a glass of water before and after eating.
