Uric Acid / Purine Levels in Various Foods

 

I recently found out that the level of uric acid in my body is too high.  Speaking with my doctor, I was instructed to cut back on meat as that is a common source of uric acid.

My curiosity piqued,  I decided to build a table of uric acid levels in all common food types that I eat.

Green items are low in uric acid (desirable).

Yellow items have a medium level of uric acid.

Red items are high in uric acid - mainly just meats and beans.
