Hello,

I can understand your concern. There are certain food items that can help to keep your uric acid on the lower side.

One tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water taken 2-3 times a day and a lemon squeezed in warm water taken on empty stomach in the morning will help to increase alkaline levels and reduce uric acid in body.

In addition, having cherries and restricting on alcohol, purines (mostly non-vegetarian diet), high fat diet and high sugar will help you.

Common side effects of this syrup include diarrhea, loose stools, nausea, vomiting and little discomfort in stomach. It is otherwise a safe syrup to continue.

I hope this answers your query. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. Take care.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
