Hibiscus
It has been shown that the flowering plant, hibiscus, raises the urine’s uric acid levels as a byproduct of uric acid’s removal from the body. Hibiscus acts as a diuretic and uricosuric substance, one that raises the quantity of uric acid in the urine in people with urologic illnesses.
Hibiscus is used as a traditional Thai medicine to cure and prevent arthritis and gout since it is abundant in beta-carotene, vitamin C, and anthocyanin are abundant. Registered dietician Czerwony says antioxidant-rich foods, including hibiscus, fight free radical damage and prevent illness. Furthermore, according to one animal study, a hibiscus may reduce uric acid levels and gout risk.
Phytochemicals such as polyphenols and anthocyanin are abundant in hibiscus tea, according to research published in Fitoterapia journal. Dried hibiscus is available in food shops. Steep dried hibiscus buds, called calyxes, in boiling water.
Soak the herbs for around 10 minutes in boiling water. Next, make hibiscus powder from dried and finely crushed plant pieces. To prepare the beverage, combine the powder with water. Hibiscus can also be purchased as highly concentrated supplements of liquid extract.
