Lamb
We have another example of game meats as a potential trigger for issues such as diverticulitis and even gout. The issue with red meats is they come with plenty of potential health complications, which is why it’s crucial to always be wary. Similar to venison and beef, lamb can also cause the symptoms of diverticulitis to flare up. Inflammation can lead to many painful symptoms, which is why it’s best to avoid lamb if you have diverticulitis.
Otherwise, lamb comes packed with iron, zinc, and vitamin B12, which is why it’s a meat that promotes overall muscle growth and maintenance. However, it has also been linked to various conditions including stroke, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, and more. Like most other red meats, lamb also has a combination of cholesterol, sodium, and saturated fats.
When eaten in moderation, it could potentially still be a part of a healthy diet for those suffering from gout, but there are other meats you could potentially choose.
