I am looking for a low-purine diet for gout, one that is very simple and to the point. Broken down by weekly intake using old fashion measurements (cups, teaspoons, etc.). Is there such a thing?

All you have to do for gout is eat cherries or drink cherry juice. You will have immediate relief. Really!
I was just talking to a natural health provider about this the other day and she recommended cherries also. She said that red cherries are the best, fresh, canned, juice or any form that you can find. She also said it was important to have some everyday and that there have been studies to show that it is really effective for relieving the symptoms of gout.

The Cherries work every time, have had gout twice and the doctor told me to drink cherry juice, it worked wonders.
CHERRIES recommended about 8 . Seems to work for many. Give them a try. I think even the cherry pie filling will work if that is all that is available.
I was just talking to a friend yesterday about this very thing. She said to avoid all canned fish. Hope this helps.

My husband suffers from Gout and has had it for approx. 20+yrs. Cherries do seem to work, sometimes. He takes medication(Allopurinol)daily. On occasion he has a flare up and takes (Indomethicin). Over the years he has averaged 1 or 2 attacks per year(approx. 1~3 days).
