Brief Answer:
Uric acid is byproduct of protein

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

The uric acid is high normal. So it is not worrisome range. The rise in uric acid levels might be because of multiple reasons. Alcoholism, obesity, certain medicines are commonly things I find in regular patients.

I suggest you to reduce high purine products in your diet like organ meat, fish and alcohol.

Follow up with your doctor after making these changes and repeat the levels.
