My uric acid level is 10, and I am taking Febuget 40 as advised by my doctor. What foods should I eat or avoid, and what diet can I follow as a non-vegetarian?
A uric acid level of 10 is high and requires careful dietary control along with your current treatment to bring it down. Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help flush uric acid, and choose foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy to support balance. As a non-vegetarian, you can take small portions of chicken or fish occasionally, but avoid red meat, organ meats, and seafood like prawns and sardines as they can raise levels. Limit alcohol, sugary drinks, and very rich foods, and keep your meals light and regular to support metabolism. Avoid overeating and sudden high-protein diets as they can worsen the problem. If you get joint pain or swelling, it needs attention. Consult your doctor for personalised diet guidance and follow-up.
