Generally, High fructose foods like fruits and Sugar avoided also cool drinks, alchohol, meat in gouty arthtis.
But my uric acide levels 11 , 10 and some times 8.5 based on different labs.
Eating 5-6 jilebis in 2 days and Increased sugar intake 2 table spoon sugar *2 2 times coffe attacked this.
When morning put my leg on surface crystal needling pain in my ankle.
Sugar Foods also worsen Fatty Liver disease
Fructose only processed by liver which is busy and ineffiecnyc if you have Non aclholic fatty liver disease and obesity / belly fat.
How does increased fructose intake lead to gout?
after liver processing fructose, converted to fructose-1-phosphate, which causes a reduction in ATP levels. The resulting increase in AMP means it is converted to IMP instead, in the absence of phosphate for phosphorylation. This in turn can enter the uric acid synthetic pathway.
Increasing fructose intake and lowered ATP levels may lead to an increase in purine nucleotide production with increased uric acid being a side effect.
reduced insulin sensitivity due to the peripheral fat deposition induced by fructose, which may result in reduced uric acid excretion.
Does white sugar has fructose?
Sucrose is 50% glucose and 50% fructose
Yes, white sugar, also known as sucrose, contains fructose. Sucrose is a disaccharide, which means it’s made up of two monosaccharides: glucose and fructose. White sugar is made from sugar cane or sugar beets
ATP VS AMP VS IMP
Metabolic pathway:
When a cell needs energy, ATP breaks down into ADP and then AMP, which can further be converted to IMP through deamination.
ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is a molecule that stores energy within cells, while AMP (Adenosine Monophosphate) is a breakdown product of ATP with only one phosphate group, and IMP (Inosine Monophosphate) is another breakdown product of ATP, formed when AMP is further deaminated, essentially representing a lower energy state compared to ATP and even AMP; in simple terms, ATP has the most energy, followed by ADP, then AMP, and finally IMP with the least energy.
