Cakes
To get this out of the way, most things that are considered sugary and contain high-fructose corn syrup are going to make this list. Both fructose and sugar can cause a buildup of uric acid, resulting in a gout flare up. The thing about cakes is they can be quite versatile, and can be prepared in such a way that they could still be potentially healthy. However, a huge percentage of cakes aren’t a good idea for those with gout, especially due to the high levels of sugar.
Cakes can be fantastic and they’re often prepared in a variety of aesthetically pleasing ways. Most people also purchase cakes as part of a celebration, which honestly isn’t a bad idea. Most people know not to eat cake everyday, so I’m here to warn the ones that might have a habit of chowing down on cake every single day.
It’s not necessarily just about the cake itself, but all of the ingredients that typically come with a cake. For example, you have frosting, which can be made from butter and cream. There are so many potentially unhealthy ingredients with cakes that avoiding the dessert is wholeheartedly recommended.
