The 28-Day Gout Diet Plan: The Optimal Nutrition Guide to Manage Gout

I have gout and the doctor wanted to put me on daily medication for it and I decided. I would try changing my diet first, so I looked for a cookbook and found this one. This cookbook is so complete with the exception of pictures with the recipes. That would just be a plus! I It's so awesome! It does include meals with meat and seafood, but if you look at the portions it's in moderation which is tolerable with gout. The recipes come with nutrition amounts, ingredient, preparation and variation tips. It's just amazing! I included pictures of two dishes that I made from the recipes.

LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! Please tell me you have more cookbooks!!! I never write reviews but I just had to write something. My husband has been suffering with gout & we both felt hopeless at first. We found your book, learned more about the condition & felt impowered to try this diet together. After 3, I repeat THREE days of starting this diet my husband’s symptoms were reduced. After 5 days - his flare up was gone. We attribute it to this diet! Both he, I & the kids are eating better and feeling better. And the FOOD!!! I thought.....oh my, reduce salt, reduce fat, reduce portion, reduce....reduce.....reduce....it’s not going to taste good & we’ll be miserable. Oh NO....the food is delicious & so flavorful! Fresh, quick & easy! Thank-you so much Miss Sophia. We feel blessed to have found your book & I hope we can find you online so we can enjoy more of your receipes and thoughtful advice. Hugs to you!

My husband has had gout for many years, and although he knows the basics of what to avoid etc, he does still have several attacks each year (nobody's perfect!). He loved the recipes in this book--it's inspirational and nice to see that even when avoiding certain foods, you can still make beautiful food that tastes good. I love how the book reads--it's nicely organized, covers everything in an approachable way, not preachy or overly scientific. It's also a beautiful book to read. I'm happy I got this book and know that we'll be using it from here on out.

Very happy with the recipes and the excellent descriptions of gout causes, treatment and available suggestions for prevention.

This book is the best I have found to help you learn to live with gout. I am recently diagnosed and was shocked at the contradictory and confusing information out there, so was relieved to finally find a wonderful resource! Gout is explained in easy to understand terms and lots of great recipes (with photos) and tips are provided. The book includes suggestions for how to stock your pantry and shopping lists for each week.

I was excited for this book as a person with gout. I like the idea of a meal plan and shopping list. I was disappointed when I went shopping and then started to meal prep. The spices weren’t included in the shopping list. Also, most of the serving sizes are for 4 but you only eat that meal once in the week. I can freeze the meat items but the vegetables I prefer fresh as they don’t freeze well.

Good

I have already made some recipes and it has helped so much in my life. I love this book. The food is great.

By following the recipes in the book I managed to halve my uric acid count in 2 months. Also useful for people with diabetes as most recipes are also diabetic friendly. 90% of my meals are now made using this book.

Good recipes. Again in confused via Google, GP etc, many foods to be avoided are in recipes. First recipes opened to, oats? I was told no oats, spinach, cauliflower?

Amazing book with delicious recipes

While I may need to modify some of this plan because I live in a fairly remote part of Australia, and for my own tastes, I think it could provide what I need to follow in the new year. I have learnt quite a bit about gout-friendly and unfriendly foods. While I knew about cherries, for example, I had no idea that sodium was a major problem.

Perfect recipe book - lots of choices!
