Can people with gout eat duck meat?

Patients with gout are advised to avoid eating duck meat, which is very high in purines. Therefore, individuals with gout should consume duck meat sparingly—or preferably not at all. Dietary management for gout emphasizes avoiding high-purine foods, such as organ meats (e.g., liver, kidneys), seafood, fermented foods, hotpot dishes, and rich meat broths. Additionally, foods containing moderate amounts of purines should also be limited or avoided. These include various types of meat—such as chicken, duck, goose, pork, beef, and lamb—as well as certain legumes and legume products (e.g., soybeans, tofu), and nuts.
