Gout Symptoms, Herbs & Supplements

Avoiding HFCS - Dr. Mercola
Besides alcohol and too much protein, many people are not aware that there is another dietary culprit that wrecks your uric acid levels, putting you at high risk of gout: high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS). A study conducted by US and Canadian researchers found that consuming HFCS-containing soda is strongly associated with an increased risk of developing gout. They found that men who consumed two or more sodas per day had an 85 percent higher risk of gout than those who drank less than one a month. The risk also significantly increased in men who consumed five to six servings of soft drinks a week. Fruit juices and high-fructose fruits like oranges and apples also increased the risk.

Turmeric/Curcumin & Omega-3, Avoid Meat & Alcohol -
Dr. Russell Blaylock
Gout is a fairly common metabolic disease related to the metabolism of purine (a DNA component). About 15% of the purines come from our diet, and reducing them can reduce the frequency of attacks. The major offenders include sweetbreads, sardines, liver, kidney, animal meats, seafood, beans, lentils, spinach and peas. The worst threat was alcohol — especially beer and hard liquor. Wine had little effect. There is a connection between gout, insulin resistance and obesity.
Since the main problem with gout is the deposition of urate crystals in the joints and kidneys, arthritis and urate kidney stones can be a major problem. However, curcumin mixed with omega-3 oil (a dose of 250 to 500 mg. three times a day) will reduce arthritis symptoms and protect the joints from damage. Remember that curcumin and omega-3 oils can thin the blood, so they should not be taken with anticoagulants or aspirin.
Vitamin C - Andrew Saul, Ph.D.
For uric acid/purine stones (gout), stop eating meat. Nutrition tables and textbooks indicate meats as the major dietary purine source. Natural treatment adds juice fasts and eating sour cherries. Increased vitamin C consumption helps by improving the urinary excretion of uric acid. [12]. For these stones, use buffered ascorbate "C".

Cherries, Celery, Nettles, Magnesium - Naturopath Josh Axe
A study published in Arthritis & Rheumatism evaluated 633 individuals with gout who were treated with cherry extract over a two-day period. This cherry treatment was associated with a 35 percent lower risk of gout attacks.

Researchers have identified over a dozen different types of antioxidants that are responsible for the benefits of celery — these include such phenolic acids as caffeic acid and ferulic acid, plus flavaols like quecetin. This makes celery useful for treating a wide range of conditions that are made worse by inflammation: joint pain (such as from arthritis), gout, kidney and liver infections, skin disorders, irritable bowel syndrome, and urinary tract infections, just to name a few.
The third thing you can add is nettles. Nettles is a powerful anti-inflammatory phytonutrient, and you can buy it in tea form. A review of commonly used herbal remedies, including nettles, published in Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, relays the standing of nettles as an anti-inflammatory food. So again, you can buy nettles as a supplement or drink it as a tea, and it’s great for getting rid of gout.
One other remedy that’s been very beneficial in treating gout is magnesium. Magnesium is an alkaline mineral. That alkaline mineral can also decrease uric acid formation in the body, and studies show magnesium is an effective treatment for gout, particularly acute cases of gout.
If you have signs of magnesium deficiency, you may be susceptible to gout, so it’s a good idea to add magnesium-rich foods or magnesium supplements to your list of natural gout remedies.

Mayim Vega, Naturopathic Herbalist and Holistic Life Coach, started Arukah.com, the Holistic Life Academy in 2009 to help people attain holistic health and healing through The Arukah Method. In 2021, Arukah.com began offering the Holistic Healer certification program to train people in nutrition, herbalism, naturopathy, and health & life coaching. Her goal is to create an army of much-needed holistic healers that will pave the way to the future of healthcare. As the inventor & visionary Thomas Edison once said, “The doctor of the future will give no medicine but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease.”
She was formerly a Computer Scientist/Engineer at the NASA Ames Research Center before starting her own family. She saw that the modern medical system was broken and took her family's health into her own hands by studying the top healers of our day. She believes the words of Hippocrates, the “Father of Medicine,” when he said, “The greatest medicine of all is teaching people how not to need it...Everyone has a doctor in him or her; we just have to help it in its work.”

There are so many positive things I could say about Mayim Vega, but today I'm going to focus on two that are very important to me. First is her willingness to always serve others, and second is her ability and openness to answering questions. She possesses extensive knowledge of health issues. My family and I never hesitate to contact her immediately whenever we have any questions about alternativesto conventional treatments that I already know of from my training in the management of diseases. I’d recommend her 100% any day!

Mayim has helped me tremendously over the last 3 years in my journey toward healing. There have been multiple times that I have inquired and received invaluable wisdom and knowledge from her. For example, I struggle with arthritis and have heart palpitations regularly. Mayim provided me with her formula for herbal calcium tea. After drinking it I felt a difference very quickly. Over time, my palpitations dissipated and my pain was relieved. I also had very healthy blood pressure after drinking the tea as she recommended for a few months. This greatly increased my quality of life. Additionally, I required more iron, as I as anemic and struggling, and she shared her super greens formula with me which also helped bring up my B vitamins. I saw a major improvement after drinking daily, and I began providing the drink to my children as well.
I was interested in naturopathic healing before acquiring Mayim's recommendations, but I have learned so much as a result. Herbal remedies, a whole foods diet, and many options for avoiding allopathic care have all added to my family's quality of life. More than that, though she has helped me navigate many trials and has been an integral part of my personal healing in that she has given me advice on how to process trauma, how to promote healing emotionally/physically, and how best to handle situations in my life. When I've needed honest advice, she has consistently listened and given fair advice in many areas of my life.
Lastly, Mayim is a successful entrepreneur from whom I have gotten many ideas from, while running a family business and has shared her knowledge and even challenges so that we as a family might be more successful. In all, she is an invaluable asset and cherished ally to our family and to me individually.

Dear Prospective Student / Client of Arukah or Mayim Coralyn Vega
I have been a longtime clientof Mayim and her holistic company, Arukah.
Mayim is someone who believes in the intelligence of the body, as well as its capacity for self-healing. She is also skilled in a wide variety of herbal remedies, many of which she has shared with me.
It is through Mayim that I was introduced to naturopathic perspectives and practices, such as those taught by the late Dr. John Christopher and his School of Natural Healing. Much of what I learned while studying these teachings inspiredand empoweredme to take even greater control of my health and wellness journey. For this alone, I will forever be grateful.
Mayim and the entire team at Arukah have always been extremely professional and helpful. She and Arukah are generous with their time and advice and I know that they really care about me. The guidance and remedies I've received over the past five years have equipped me to support my body through any challenge.
Because of Mayim, I have a deeper understanding of and appreciation for my body's natural healing processes. I have learned to not live in fear. I have learned to trust my intuition of what my body wants and needs. And I live in greater freedom and awareness of my body's innate wisdom.
