Consuming alcohol is one of a biggest triggers of a painful gout attack. Studies have shown that beer in particular is dangerous. One study followed 47,000 men for 12 years and found that 2% of them developed gout. Those that had more alcohol in their diet had a much higher risk. One serving of beer a day can increase your risk by 50%. Beer in particular has high levels of purine, explaining its particular risk.
Quite a lot of folk wonder if nuts cause gout. But if you are among these, let's give you some reassurance - it's not likely. To cause initial and subsequent gout attacks nuts have to be high purine. But they aren't. Or, if they are to raise uric acid another way, (via the insulin resistance route), it's hard to see that their quantity of sugars or carbohydrates could do this with the amount people usually eat.
