Summary of Transcript:
This study looked at 42,000 men and 48,000 women over the course of 8 years and found that those with the highest levels of uric acid had a 16% increased risk of all-cause mortality and a 38% increased risk of cardiovascular mortality. Diet is one of the biggest players in determining uric acid levels, and people should be cognizant of purines and alcohol. It was found that 70% of manufactured foods in America have added sugar, and it is suggested that no more than 6% of daily calories should come from sugar. Red meat, organ meats, and small fish are all high in purines. Gout is the extracellular crystallization of uric acid when the concentration is too high. The study also found that one-fourth of all Type 2 diabetes cases were caused by elevated uric acid levels, which is believed to be caused by the overconsumption of sugar.

The Benefits of Knowing Your Uric Acid Levels with Dr. David Perlmutter
Today’s episode of the Dr. David Perlmutter podcast is a masterclass on uric acid and its role in metabolic health. Uric acid is a natural byproduct of the body’s metabolism and can be a major contributor to numerous diseases. Dr. Perlmutter is a board certified neurologist and fellow with the American College of Nutrition who has published multiple bestselling books on diet and better brain health. He is passionate about helping people understand the importance of knowing their uric acid levels and how to make simple, consistent, intentional dietary changes to improve their overall health.
According to Dr. Perlmutter, 70 percent of the manufactured foods in America today have added sweeteners, which can be a major contributor to high uric acid levels. He also states that 100% of humans alive today or who have ever lived have this genetic issue with the uric enzyme and cannot break down uric acid. Therefore, it’s important to be aware of what you are consuming and how it may be impacting your uric acid levels.
Dr. Perlmutter also stresses the importance of reconnecting to the incredibly beautiful gift that we’ve received from all who have come before us. He believes that what we choose to do rewires our brain and changes our thinking. He encourages people to make intentional dietary changes to improve their metabolic health and avoid the diseases that can arise from poor nutrition.
One of Dr. Perlmutter’s most important pieces of advice is to stop eating fructose. Fructose is a type of sugar found in many processed foods and can be a major contributor to high uric acid levels. He believes that fructose is a signal that prepares us for not having any food, so it’s important to be aware of how much fructose you are consuming and make sure to limit it as much as possible.
