Tag: Bread and purines

According to nutrition data, certain yeast-based bakery items can have significantly lower purine counts per 100g compared to others, but the answer to which bread has the lowest purines is more complex than a simple number. This guide explores the different bread types and their purine content to provide clarity for those managing gout.

According to the UK Gout Society, bread generally has a low-to-moderate purine content, and most people with elevated uric acid can eat it in moderation. However, the type of bread, whole grain versus white, and individual health factors play a significant role in determining how much and what kind of bread is best for a person with high uric acid levels.
