In Ayurveda planet Uric acid is called "Aadya-Vaat". It is a disease of the affluent and rich people. There are many simple home remedies for Uric acid which can help to ease the pain like applying ice on the inflamed toe or joint, eating cherries, avoiding pulses, cereals or high protein diet, but one of the most important things is cleansing the blood and correcting the disturbed purine - pyrimidine metabolism. The proteins which are processed in the liver are not correctly processed thereby leaving the intermediate metabolites causing an increase in uric acid levels. This increased uric acid crystalizes around various joints especially the toe joint and causes pain and inflammation.
The Ayurveda treatment of Uric acid consists of eating an alkaline diet rather than acidic diet.
1. Cherries, Strawberries, fresh fruits, and vegetables are good in uric acid treatment. They are alkaline in nature and help to decrease uric acid.
