Essential Information for Gout Sufferers

I have been treated for Gout by my Doctor and by a Naturopath for several years, with mixed results. I've eaten cherries, taken Alopurinol, eliminated beer and reduced alcohol, cut back on meat, and tried numerous other remedies. I could expect a painful attack about once or twice a month regardless of all my efforts. This book was the first time I really began to understand the mechanism of Gout in total and how it is treated today. As a result of this book, I have not had an attack in over 5 months and am not making any onerous sacrifices. Rather than giving you one particular cure that will eliminate Gout for everyone, this book enables you to understand your disease and to work with your doctor to develop a solution that will make Gout a minor irritation in your life. Do I recommend it? If you have Gout, you don't need to ask.
