“…This is despite no compelling clinical trial data demonstrating the efficacy of the numerous dietary recommendations in patients with established gout (13). In contrast to dietary management, the benefits of long-term serum urate lowering for people with gout have been demonstrated in numerous clinical studies.…”

Popular newspaper articles depict gout as a self-inflicted condition that is socially embarrassing and the focus of humor. Dietary solutions are overemphasized compared to effective urate-lowering strategies. Initiatives that challenge popular perceptions of gout may play an important role in changing public understanding about the disease, ultimately increasing the uptake of effective urate-lowering therapy and reducing reliance on unproven strategies.

“…Low-fat dairy products, whole grains, nuts and legumes, and low-sugar fruits and coffee are, instead, associated with a decreased risk of gout [33,34]. While some investigators have reported that vitamin C supplements reduce hyperuricaemia [35], a recent Cochrane systematic review failed to uncover a clinically significant reduction in serum uric acid levels after vitamin C supplementation in comparison with the decrease linked to the use of standard urate-lowering agents [36].…”

Arthritis encompasses a heterogeneous group of diseases characterised by inflammation that leads not only to joint damage, bone erosion, severe pain and disability, but also affects other organs of the body, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. Although the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of joint diseases are for the most part unknown, a number of nutrient and non-nutrient components of food have been shown to affect the inflammatory process and, in particular, to influence clinical disease progression. The Mediterranean diet model has already been linked to a number of beneficial health effects: both fat and non-fat components of the Mediterranean dietary pattern have been shown to exert important anti-inflammatory activities by affecting the arachidonic acid cascade, the expression of some proinflammatory genes, and the activity of immune cells. N-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, in particular, have been shown to affect lymphocyte and monocyte functions, crucially involved in adaptive and innate immunity. Although some aspects concerning the mechanisms of action through which the Mediterranean diet pattern exerts its beneficial effects remain to be elucidated, arthritis patients may potentially benefit from it in view of their increased cardiovascular risk and the treatment they require which may have side effects.
