Disease description:

Patients with high uric acid levels can drink pure milk, but should pay attention to moderation and selecting the appropriate type. Pure milk is considered a low-purine food, as it contains low levels of purines and will not significantly increase uric acid levels. Milk is rich in high-quality protein, calcium, and other nutrients, which help supply essential nutrients to the body. For patients with high uric acid levels, moderate consumption of pure milk is beneficial, but it is recommended to limit daily intake to approximately 300 mL. In addition, if patients have concurrent metabolic syndrome issues, such as elevated blood sugar or abnormal blood lipids, it is recommended they choose skimmed or low-fat milk to reduce fat and sugar intake. At the same time, patients should also avoid consuming high-purine foods such as animal offal, seafood, and meat broth, and maintain healthy lifestyle habits, such as engaging in moderate physical activity and quitting smoking and limiting alcohol consumption, in order to control uric acid levels and prevent complications.
