What Are Some Non Medicated Cures for Gout?
Gout is a form of arthritis that causes intense pain in the big toe joints. Risk factors for this condition include hypertension, diabetes and narrowing of the arteries. People with a family history of gout also have a higher risk. According to the Mayo Clinic, gout is a treatable condition. Prescription medications such as zyloprim or aloprim focus on reducing uric acid levels in the body (which play a role in the development of gout), explains the Mayo Clinic. Supplements and diet changes, however, may also lower uric acid levels.
