Hi all.
Can anyone advise me on how long it should take to reduce uric acid to safe levels through diet alone.
About 5 weeks ago a blood result came back at 0.44 mmol. I immediately changed my diet, eliminating 95% of meat and fish intake, staying hydrated at all times, completely abstaining from beer and having a breakfast (I never used to do that).
My latest blood test shows I am at 0.38mmol (which is still too high – being above 0.36mmol). So a 0.06mmol drop in 5 weeks.
Can someone help, I’d really appreciate it.
