Can I eat beef if I have high uric acid levels?

Patients with high uric acid levels can eat beef, but should pay attention to moderate consumption and control frequency. 1. Purine content: Beef is a medium-purine food, containing approximately 80-85 mg of purines per 100 grams. Compared with high-purine foods such as organ meats and seafood, beef has a lower purine content, but higher than low-purine foods such as vegetables and fruits. 2. Moderate consumption: Patients with high uric acid levels can generally consume beef in moderation without causing a sharp increase in uric acid levels. However, excessive consumption may increase uric acid production and negatively affect their condition. 3. Cooking methods: It is recommended to choose cooking methods such as stewing, boiling, or hot pot, and avoid frying, pan-frying, or grilling to reduce additional fat intake and purine content.
