Before we begin, if you are in the middle of an acute attack right now, none of the vitamins below will help immediatly with the pain. You need to see a Podiatrist or a GP for managment of the attack. Vitamins for Gout can help lower the inflammatory response over time, but most important some can possibly help reduce the level of uric acid in your blood. So below I have ranked the best vitamins for Gout sufferers:
Black Cherry Extract– This is not so much a vitamin, but black cherry has been know to decrease inflammatory responses in a study. Gout at its heart is an inflammatory response to uric acid crystallizing in the joint. The nice thing about Black Cherry is it is available in delivery forms such as a vitamin or in the form of a tea.
Vitamin C– Lets cut to the chase, there are very little conditions that Vitamin C cannot aid. The fact is any condition can benefit from having an intake of Vitamin C. However, Vitamin C can result in a reduction in Uric Acid levels in the blood, providing that bonus of a response.
Potassium Citrate and Calcium– These two vitamins can raise the pH of the blood which raises the body pH and then removes uric acid from the blood.
