TWT:
Most people associate uric acid with gout, but that’s only part of the story.
On today’s show, we break down how elevated uric acid can quietly drive inflammation in the body for years, contributing not only to joint pain but to a wide range of other health concerns.
When we understand what uric acid is and how it’s created, we can begin addressing the root causes rather than simply managing symptoms.
By identifying early warning signs and key lab markers, you can take action before it progresses into more serious disease.
Join me on today’s Cabral Concept 3672 to uncover the hidden dangers of uric acid and learn simple, natural strategies to keep your levels in check.
Enjoy the show.
Show Highlights & Big Takeaways
1. Uric Acid Is a Silent Inflammation Driver:
Uric Acid doesn’t just cause gout, it can impair nitric oxide, increase oxidative stress, and raise the risk of cardiovascular and kidney disease long before symptoms become obvious.
2. Diet, Alcohol & Metabolic Health Matter:
High-purine foods, fructose (especially from sugary drinks), alcohol, dehydration, and poor blood sugar control can all elevate uric acid. Managing triglycerides, fasting insulin, HbA1c, and blood pressure is critical.
3. You Can Lower It Naturally:
Hydration, reducing alcohol and processed foods, balancing blood sugar, increasing vitamin C, magnesium, potassium, and eating 7–9 servings of fruits and vegetables daily can help support healthy uric acid levels and reduce long-term disease risk.
