My husband had an attack of gout. I never heard about it before. He travels a lot and eats all kinds of bad foods. I am starting on raw foods and know if he would be in it with me he would never have it. His knee is swollen as big as a watermelon and the pain is excruciating. I am trying to flush the uric acid from his body with lots of water with lemon, apples and cucumber juice etc, but what to do for the pain????

Braggs Apple cider vinegar and at least 3 T per day for him to start with. In water, in juice, in applesauce..how ever he can take it. Gout is uric acid crystals and that's just the start of what's wrong with him if he has gout. Also, get some burdock root tincture from vitaminshoppe.com or your whole foods store. It comes in a small dark bottle of 1 oz. and I love it for cleansing out uric acid crystals. Take it 3x a day for as long as he has symptoms and until he cleans up his diet and health issues, taking breaks from the supplements are good though. Going with a clean whole plant food diet is best.

He needs to quit drinking caffeine, eating dairy, and red meats at the very least.

Fresh raw foods are excellent, with fresh green/carrot juice being excellent for him.

Love,
Prism
