Many people with high uric acid talk about the discoloration of "beans". Because an inherent concept is in their minds: legumes are high in purines, so they must not be eaten.
The purine intake of eating soybeans is limited. The purine content in soybeans is indeed not low. Each 100 grams of dry soybeans contains 190 mg of purines, which is similar to meat. But here is "dried soybeans". It is easy for people to eat 100 grams of meat a day, and they will unknowingly overweight, but it is quite difficult for people to eat 100 grams of dried soybeans a day.
Purines are lost during the production of soybean products. During the manufacturing process of most soy products, the purines in soybeans are greatly reduced because the purines are easily soluble in water. In daily life, it is impossible for people to eat dried soybeans. After the dried soybeans are processed by foaming, stewing, etc., the purines in the soybeans have been reduced.
Appropriate and correct consumption of soybeans will not cause gout. Compared with meat, soybeans and other miscellaneous legumes are safer than meat for people with high uric acid. Plant purines have a lower risk of causing gout than meat purines, which has been confirmed by scientific research. The results of clinical studies also show that, compared with gout patients who consume less soy products, the incidence of acute gout in gout patients who consume more soy products is not significantly higher. Of course, low risk does not mean that there is no risk. It means that we cannot easily give up foods such as soybeans, which have high nutritional value, have many health benefits, and dietary guidelines encourage people to eat more; people with high uric acid can't be entangled with it. To eat soybeans, it is better to pay attention to how to eat and how much to eat. What is the correct method and the correct amount of consumption is the key to the problem.
