Is it okay to drink green tea with high uric acid?

Patients with high uric acid levels can drink green tea, but should pay attention to the following points: 1. Moderate consumption: Although green tea contains a certain amount of caffeine, which can stimulate kidney function and increase uric acid excretion, excessive consumption of strong tea may lead to an excess of caffeine in the body, which in turn may be converted into uric acid, causing an increase in uric acid levels. Therefore, it is recommended to drink mild green tea in moderation and avoid strong tea. 2. Auxiliary effect: Green tea has a certain auxiliary effect in lowering uric acid levels, but its effect is limited and cannot replace professional treatment. Patients with high uric acid still need to follow medical advice for standardized treatment, such as taking uric acid-lowering medications and controlling diet. 3. Dietary combination: While drinking green tea, patients with high uric acid also need to pay attention to other dietary choices, such as avoiding high-purine foods like seafood and animal offal, in order to comprehensively control uric acid levels.
