                                Studies have shown a strong correlation between high consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and an increased risk of developing gout. This risk is not shared equally among all sweeteners, with certain types posing a greater threat to those with hyperuricemia, the condition of high uric acid levels that causes gout.
